Authors Ramona Barry and Beck Jobson explore this vibrant resurgence, and the way artists across the globe are embracing traditional techniques like weaving, embroidery, quilting and dyeing, while pushing them into bold new territory. Far from decorative or nostalgic, these works speak to urgent contemporary themes: identity, gender, migration and environment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTextiles have become a site of resistance, storytelling and innovation. This global survey of forty-four artists reveals the shifting boundaries between craft and fine art, and the expressive power of cloth in the hands of today's most boundary-pushing creatives. Textile art isn't just having a moment, it's reshaping the conversation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 11 April 2025\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePages: 304\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 26.2 x 20.8 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford Street Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51396489347288,"sku":"ACB006","price":69.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/1598\/4856\/files\/Textiles1.webp?v=1771141474","url":"https:\/\/oxfordstgallery.com\/products\/textiles-x-art-book-by-ramona-barry-and-beck-jobson","provider":"Oxford Street Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
