Ravel – Juried Group Textile Show

Ravel investigates the tactile, the layered, and the transformative—the selected pieces reveal the intimate relationship between material, technique, and meaning. Whether through weaving, stitching, knitting, felting, embroidery, or experimental textile practices, the works celebrate structure, tension, softness, imperfection, or the unexpected journeys of thread and fibre.

Curated by Susan Wallis. On exhibition June 13th – July 5th, 2026 at Melt Studio & Gallery at Base31, Barrack 3, 343 County Road 22, Picton. Open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, noon-5 PM.
