Working across narratives of adornment, costuming and social archetypes two mid-career artists discuss the power of their thematic and arts practice in the time of local and global unease.

With practice centred around conceptual and material adornment and transformation, both Liam Benson and Julia Robinson use the body as a vehicle to address societal expectations around cultural and gender politics. Together the artists discuss the role of textiles in metamorphosis and how 2020 has shifted practice.
