Studio 21 is pleased to announce that this exhibition has been awarded the prestigious Hartlebury Award for 2016. Presented annually during the Select Festival. The awarding judges said :
The Sewing Machine Project showed an eclectic mix of work from wrapped up de-constructed sewing machines, fascinating insights into the piece work machinists, to beautifully machined fabrics. The pictures of men milling the sewing machine and the women at work using them provided a historic background to the work, together with the professionally produced and informative booklet. It was an inspiring and professionally presented exhibition.
