Maggie Hensel-Brown features in an exhibition at Penrith Regional Gallery – Maggie and the OWLS [Outer Western Lace Makers] – Light In Space.
15 March – 11 May, 2025.
‘Light in Space is an exhibition that honours the traditions and evolving techniques of lacemaking: a practice historically overlooked as a domestic, decorative and amateur craft. Taking shape as a conversation between local lacemaking collective the Outer Western Lacemakers known as the OWLS – and contemporary lace artist Maggie Hensel-Brown, Light in Space bridges the traditional and the contemporary to reaffirm lacemaking’s cultural significance, enduring legacy, and dynamic potential as an artistic medium.’
