Tapestries and textiles occupy a vital intersection of art, craft, and cultural heritage. Rooted in ancient traditions of weaving, dyeing, and embroidery, these works communicate through material, technique, and motif. Textiles have served functional, decorative, and symbolic roles across civilisations. In contemporary practice, artists use fibre to interrogate gender, labour, and identity, elevating the medium beyond utility into the realm of critical expression and aesthetic inquiry. Throughout history, civilizations have expressed their creativity and skill through the art of woven cloth.
