Carolyn Halliday employs the vocabulary of textiles in her sculptural works. She recently exhibited in the 8th Biennial of Contemporary Textile Art, Madrid, Spain.

Tim Harding combines an original process of piecing and cutting to create the illusion of three-dimensional space within the textile plane.
