The 84 Group is a group of contemporary textile artists based in Perth, Australia. A sampling of our work is currently on display in the 'Travelling Thread Exhibition' at the Old Bakery Gallery on 8th in Maylands Perth. Running till 19 September 2010, it is well worth a visit to see an enormous range of items from 22 very creative people.
While free motion embroidery has been used in many of the exhibits, there is a wide variety of other textile and surface embellishment techniques on display.
To see a slideshow of all the exhibits, go to:
There are 116 pieces in the exhibition created by 22 textile artists. The photos include the name of the artist and title of the work. Items vary from functional to frivolous - art to wear, wall hangings, vessels, books, jewellery and more.
