Join textile artists Tim Parry-Williams and Franz Petter Schmidt for a talk about their work and research and a tour of their new exhibition, ‘At The Margins’. The exhibition grew out of the artistic research project Beyond Heritage: Material Making Meaning. Tim Parry-Williams’ research explores the apparent use of English ‘saved list' cloths including Stroud scarlet, in pre-1900 Norwegian folk dress. Franz Petter Schmidt has been exploring the history of the weaving workshop at Prinds Christian Augusts Minde, a former workhouse in central Oslo, established in 1819.
