Explore Betty Musgrove’s multi-media practice which encompasses contemporary digital modes of textile production and traditional techniques—embroidery, tapestry, cross-stitch and applique. Her work pays homage to the long, rich tradition of women imparting their wisdom and skills in these historically underappreciated art forms. Ancestry, genetics and social constructs of the family are the inspirational catalyst for her latest body of work.
