Interwoven
6th – 31st March 2026
Window on Heritage
Interwoven brings together textile making and storytelling to explore memory, connection and belonging. Created by members of Maryhill Integration Network’s Oasis Women’s Group, the exhibition is a creative response to The Glasgow School of Art Archives and Collections, celebrating community and the sharing of cultural heritage.
Participants drew inspiration from the collections to develop individual fabric panels, translating personal ideas and memories into textile form. These works were brought together as vibrant collages, forming a collective tapestry that weaves humour, nostalgia and storytelling through themes of home, family, love and friendship.
Creative sessions led by artist Sara Abdelnasser Abdelkader provided space for learning, exchange and collaboration. Multiple voices and perspectives emerge through the textiles and the stories that accompany them, reshaping how heritage collections are encountered and understood. These narratives are shared through wall texts and an accompanying booklet, extending the dialogue between the past and the present, the individual and the collective experience.
The project was funded by Museum Galleries Scotland’s Sustainable Co-production Fund, which is part of Delivering Change, a programme that supports museums and galleries across Scotland to make changes to help all people access culture. The Delivering Change Sustainable Co-production Fund was made possible thanks to National Lottery players and People’s Postcode Lottery players.
