White Noise & The Woolgatherer

Emma Wallbanks & Chloe Rose Taylor

27 Jul – 24 Aug 2024

White Noise & The Woolgatherer is a collaborative exhibition from makers and longtime friends Emma Wallbanks and Chloe Rose Taylor, both based in Ōtautahi Christchurch.

The two artists intuitively gravitate towards issues of materiality – Wallbanks with one-of-a-kind textile garments, crafted from vintage and antique fabric, spanning from Indian kantha quilts and deconstructed silk kimonos. Hand-dying and fine textile work results in clothing pieces that are part unique natural adornment and part expressive art object.

 

 

Taylor shares this deep connection to medium, both natural and constructed – concrete, bone, stone, shell, leather and silver. This is manifested in her jewellery, vases and furniture, taking inspiration from the colour and form of Wallbanks’ garments.

Meeting in collaboration for the first time, garments by Wallbanks are augmented by Taylor with fine silver buttons and fastenings, spinning the traditional notion of the button on its head, and meeting in their shared devotion to the material. This collaboration can be seen as a transfer of creative energies, culminating in exquisite speciality pieces that embody friendship and a treasured communal history.
