Held over October 2-21 at Bega's Spiral Gallery, it celebrates the techniques and skills of 20 artists who use a variety of materials such as steel, grass, bark, wool, wood, beads, sticks as well as wire and recycled items.

These innovative makers are always experimenting with fibers; if it's flexible, someone is probably weaving it!

Artists will explore new forms of artistic expression combining natural and waste products with different weaving techniques.

InterWoven will showcase repetitive processes and demonstrate the aesthetic consideration each artist uses to resolve and produce their interwoven works.

The works are a combination of sculptural and functional pieces - woven baskets, woodwork, textiles, jewellery, installation and sculptures.

Basket making and weaving techniques are some of the oldest known crafts.

The technique of weaving has been passed along generations, re-discovered, and is still being expanded upon today.

The weavers, basket makers and creators from the Bega Valley include Gabrielle Powell, Cathy Jarratt, Claudia Tasche, Hilary Peterson, Nancy Brunton, Sharon Stevens, Robyn Levey, Steve Stafford, Gayle Stockley and Skye Ethington.

Regional artists are Ali Zucco (Tilba), Erin Griffiths (Moruya), Roslyn Holmes (Batemans Bay), Meredith Peach (Moss Vale), Glenese Keavne (Fitzroy Falls), Lissa-Jane de Sailes (Nowra) with Jenny Manning, Christiane Keller, Janet Meaney and Ann McMahon from Canberra.

Meet the artists at the exhibition opening on Friday, October 2 from 4-6pm.

Meredith Hinchcliffe, a craft collector and specialist writer, will open the exhibition.

You must abide by COVID-19 restrictions if attending the opening event.

Spiral Gallery is on 47 Church St, Bega.
