The Art Workers' Guild
Monica Grose-Hodge will be holding her first exhibition of rag-rugging pieces this winter at the Guild. 25 years after finishing her surface pattern degree, Monica learned the traditional rag-rugging technique during lockdown, inspired by her good friend Rachael Matthews.
Monica’s three dimensional and tactile art pieces are inspired by plants, medieval crewel work and black embroidery work and are made from unfinished sewing projects, clothing that could no longer be used and fabrics that people have donated over the years. Monica will also be exhibiting unfinished work, sketchbooks and other projects that led up to this exhibition so that you can see what goes on behind the finished works.
