Forgotten Fleece Tales

Forgotten Fleece Tales is a celebration of the space where art, craft, story and ecology come together. The exhibition features a curated collection of works made using “waste” or “unwanted” organic Scottish fleece, and byproducts of industrial fleece processing.​

With a combination of wearables, wall hangings, home textiles, sculptural pieces and interactive experiences, Forgotten Fleece Tales provides an immersive and in-depth exploration of the enduring value of Scottish fleece, both in terms of farming and textiles heritage, and hopes for a sustainable future.​

Forgotten Fleece Tales aims to engage visitors with sensory experiences, challenging them to honour wool’s place in our heritage, and to rethink it as a sustainable and versatile material for our future.
