About

From the quirky to the conventional ReCoil: Change and Exchange in Coiled Fibre Art, developed by Artback NT, features a unique collection of innovative and contemporary forms from fibre artists' across Australia. ReCoil highlights a rich legacy of inter - cultural exchange showcasing the work of 12 Indigenous and 3 non - Indigenous artists' who have worked with their Aboriginal peers. The artists' common love of coiling has resulted in the creation of vibrant, intricate and often fantasy filled artworks. Presented by Artback NT: Arts Development and Touring and the Northern Territory's visual and performing arts touring agency.
