Elly Grant - how to actually start making your own clothes

Monday, Jul 11 2022 - Saturday, Jul 16 2022All day

Anna Leonowens Gallery

OPENING RECEPTION: Monday, 11 July, 5:30 - 7pm
12 -16 July, 2022
Gallery 2
MAAE exhibitor

Fashion and textiles artist Elly Grant asks, "Have you ever wondered how to actually start making your own clothes?"
This exhibition takes the form of a real, live, in-house atelier where you can witness the artist make her own wardrobe. Part parody, part DIY endeavour, ‘how to actually start making your own clothes’ is the artist's commentary on learning via Youtube versus IRL.

Stop in the gallery to watch and ask questions on any or all of the following dates:

July 11 – opening – 5:30 – 7 pm
July 12 – 11 am – 2:30 pm
July 13 – 11 am – 5 pm
July 14 – 1 – 5 pm
July 15 – 1 – 5 pm
July 16 – closing – 12 – 4 pm

Elly will also be livestreaming the project on Wednesday, July 13 to her Instagram: @doubledipped_

**Please note, this exhibition doubles as a video set & performance piece, we ask that you be mindful of your volume in the exhibition space as recording will be in progress.
