Careworn

Sophie-Nicole Dodds
24 April - 14th May, 2024
Constance Howard Gallery, London

Sophie-Nicole Dodds’ first solo show Careworn, curated in collaboration with Worn co-founder Abigail Jubb.

^{The exhibition brings together Sophie’s drawings, prints and garments with objects from the Goldsmiths Textile Collection as it maps their relationship along lines of wear, repair, and care. In blurring the boundaries between these and the worness they represent, it explores the ways in which our experiences of the historical archive resonate with the material memories we collect for ourselves. Making, wearing, mending and caring are here celebrated as processes of not just he past but present. Shown here in addition to new works that respond to the collection are those created during Sophie’s residency at Dumfries House, workshops a the School of Historical Dress, and from her own material memories.}
