Lois Blackburn Unveiled: An Artistic Revolutionary in Textile Art

Wild + (finally fcking) Free: Real, Raw Stories of Metamorphosis, Growth and Evolution

Join us for an unforgettable conversation with the one and only Lois Blackburn.
Lois, a gifted artist, shakes up the art world with her textile masterpieces and a fervour for challenging the status quo. A true rebel at heart, Lois is not afraid to take on intimidating art galleries and the underappreciation of textile art. Get ready to see art in a whole new perspective as we delve into the tactile experience and the importance of making art accessible to everyone.
Drawing from her work with Arts and Health, we venture into the power of creativity to catalyse conversations, discuss the War Widows Quill project and the profound connection fostered through textile art's slow pace.
From finding joy in the power of storytelling to shocking textile enthusiasts with her Blood, Sweat and Tears project centring and normalising the taboo subject of the Menopause, this convo is a giggle one minute, and filled with deep thoughtful enquiry the next.
We are not holding back as we break the silence on body positivity and boobs - boobs, boobs and more boobs! Lois discusses her latest project: The Comfort Quilt, a project helps people reclaim their bodies and improve their self-image, showcasing the therapeutic power of creativity.
She shares her experiences working with diverse groups, helping marginalised voices be heard and how creativity can be a conduit for expressing their stories.
Tune in for an eye-opening exploration into the captivating world of textile art.
