...comes this spectacular mural, which will greet visitors to Fabric of the North in the entrance area of Kirkleatham Museum:

The mural was commissioned by the Whitworth Gallery to accompany the Gallery's Tapestries exhibition last year. The textile artist Ibukun Baldwin was briefed to illustrate tapestry-weaving terms and processes. The mural was overpainted at the end of the Manchester exhibition, but the artist made a record of it and has allowed us to re-use it for Fabric of the North. Here you see it being installed. It will be accompanied by a number of displays of tapestry-weaving process, and by live artist-in-residence sessions (socially distanced, of course!)
