Presented in partnership with Western University’s Art Now! Speakers’ Series, this artist talk offers an opportunity to hear from Toronto-based textile and embroidery artist Amanda McCavour as she discusses her practice and her site-specific installation, Double Shadow, on view in Museum London’s Atrium until March 28.
Comprising more than 400 intricately stitched elements, Double Shadow transforms the Atrium wall into a delicate landscape of botanical and geometric forms that shift and evolve with changing light and shadow. McCavour’s distinctive process involves stitching directly onto water-soluble fabric before dissolving the material away, leaving behind intricate thread drawings suspended in space. Through this approach, she explores themes of memory, place, and the fragile relationship between the natural and built environment.
