Quantum Lace: Entangled Material Memories
Group Exhibition

‘Quantum Lace: Entangled Material Memories’ is a collaborative exhibition exploring the intersection of craft, science, and material memory through the medium of bobbin lace.

Moving beyond traditional lace-making, the exhibition investigates lace as both a physical and conceptual structure, one that holds, transmits, and transforms meaning. Through an interdisciplinary dialogue between art and physics, the works reflect on how materials carry traces of process, touch, and time, suggesting parallels with theories of quantum entanglement and interconnected systems.

Combining bobbin lace made from copper and alternative materials with photography and painting, the exhibition expands the boundaries of lace practice. Microscopic imaging is used to reveal intricate structures and hidden entanglements, re-framing lace as a site of complexity, tension, and transformation.

The participating artists approach lace as a living material language, one that records gestures, embodies labour, and holds memory within its structure.
