Following the worldwide economic downturn there has been a reported resurgence in an interest in home crafts such as embroidery, dressmaking, knitting and crocheting, skills which have long been regarded as the domain of the domestic and the hobbyist. However these home crafts have now entered the artistic mainstream, reflecting the intertwining of our modern complicated lives, but are being subverted from their conventional conservative stereotype, and taking on a more sinister and unpredictable nature.Among the artists exhibiting will be Elizabeth Lee, Jaswinder Mehta, Laura Westwood, Holly Elsdon-Smithers, and Rebecca Parkes
