A group exhibition of sustainable textile and fibre art. 

Curated by Catherine Gibson, the exhibition will showcase artworks 

that "thread lightly" on our planet, all of which will be made 

from at least 75% sustainable materials. Work will come from over 

25 artists, utilising diverse techniques including weaving, 

knitting, mixed media, embroidery and print.

Threading Lightly will also delve into the rich lineage of 

eco-friendly practices in textiles through integration of examples 

from the Embroiderers` Guild NSW historic collection. 

An accompanying events programme will be presented 

by researchers and students from UNSW.
