Members include embroiderers, spinners, weavers, papermakers and quilters although many of the artists have other specialities. The mixture of skills within the group provides a broad, lively environment in which to work.
Glen Gerrard 4/11/1943 – 2/01/2025
Glen Gerrard, our friend and fellow artist was a wonderful member of TAGS.
She was sympathetic, funny, charismatic, determined, strong, principled, kind and generous.
She was fearless in speaking out both in her work and personally.
Her work often dealt with the position of women and also devastating events such as the Grenfell fire, where she stitched all the victims’ names on to a tape.
Her work always maintained a wonderful freeness and spontaneity, never being overworked or over presented.
She had an extraordinary ability to use words succinctly and utterly accurately.
We will be forever grateful to have known Glen, a very special woman who we shall never forget.
