Clare Plug: Look South

Te Manawa invite you to view an exhibition of textile works by Clare Plug.

Clare Plug is one of New Zealand’s leading applied artists. She approaches her quilts in a way that responds to the world of contemporary art, rather than to traditional quilting or embroidery.

Look South is Clare’s response to Antarctica, presenting a series of quilts and banners which tease out the relationships between human culture and this icy continent.

Exhibition toured by Hawke’s Bay Museum and Art Gallery, and supported by Antarctica New Zealand, Creative New Zealand and the Mary Vigor Brown Trust.
