An exceptional roster in an exhibition highlighting the work of contemporary women artists in the Bay Area with a focus on non-representational work that explores materiality.

Maximillian Wölfgang Gallery is proud to present Unraveled, an all-women group exhibition that challenges the conventional boundaries of textile art. From rebellious weavings to boundary-breaking fabric installations, Makiko Harris, Imrana Tanveer, Angel Qin, Gala Bell, Rita Parniczky, Laurie Pearsall, and Hanni Huang invite you to question and reimagine the potential of textile as a medium for artistic expression. Textile art has long been overlooked by the fine art world and relegated as “crafts” due to its culturally historical association with traditional women’s work. Unraveled seeks to re-thread that narrative through contemporary works exploring themes of identity dynamics, gender, diaspora, post-colonialism, and post-humanism.

By stretching the limits of the textile medium, this group exhibition invites us to reshape our perceptions of it, and what kinds of stories it can tell. Whether it’s Harris’s fabric chain installation, Qin’s home appliance lingerie, Huang’s video performance, Tanveer’s post-orientalism weavings, Pearsall’s barrister wigs, Bell’s silk paintings, or Parniczky’s ethereal tapestries; each artist’s avant-garde utilization of textiles challenges the medium’s historically perceived DNA.

Pandora has announced plans to open a new pop-up experience on London’s South Bank, with the installation designed to resemble a jewellery box.

Running between 09-19 November 2023 at Potters Field Park near Tower Bridge, the art installation has been inspired by Pandora’s Christmas campaign, ‘Loves Unboxed’.

Designed with creative agency Backlash, the art pop-up celebrates different interpretations of ‘Loves’ through the work of five of the UK’s “most exciting up and coming artists”: Hisham Echafaki, Renin Bilginer, Eve De Haan, Makiko Harris and Phoebe Boddy.

Three graduates of London's Royal College of Art will present a collective exhibition in Japan on the theme of "boundary" using paintings and sculpture installations.

Artists with different backgrounds, Ava Grauls (Belgium/South Africa), Makiko Shimizu Harris (Japan/US), and Megumi Ohata (Japan/Korea), cross the land and through the cultural experience of living in their own skin, It explores the theme of the boundary between macro and micro.

A shared interest in creative activity surrounding immigration issues has led the artist collective to the 'Edge' exhibition in Hiroshima. These artists aim to bring as an artistic expression what it means to live within and without boundaries in terms of our bodies and territories.
