10 Artists 10 Years

Ten artists have come together to create a collaborative textile artwork.
This project focuses on fostering reflection, collaboration, and the setting of intentions for their artistic practice. Led by Sarah-Joy Ford as the lead artist, the following artists have also contributed: Matthew Bamber, Grace Collins, Gwen Evans, George Gibson, Alicja Mrozowska, Venessa Scott, Kay Shah, Will Belshah and Freya Wysocki.
The exhibition includes painting, drawing and collage through quilting and print making. The project took the form of a quilting circle bringing together artists from diverse artistic practices.
Sarah-Joy Ford’s interest in artist methodologies and the processes behind how and why artists create, guided the project. Within the quilt, you’ll find objects that inspire each of the artists’ practices, tools, books, artworks, and the influences that their work is in lineage to alongside items that bring comfort and meaning.
Using the idea of a quilt as a time capsule – a container for memory – the artists worked together and explored what they would leave behind as a reflection of their artistic practice. The project was centered around providing a space for playfulness, slowing down, and building connections with one another. Through this collaborative process, the artists learned from one another but also discovered interconnections between their practices.
Through collaborative workshops Sarah-Joy Ford worked with the artists to embroider with a longarm quilter and to share her specialism in quilt making.
