No One Has Taught Me This

Home is more than a place—it is a feeling, a memory, a connection carried through time. Echoes of Presence explores how materials become vessels of personal histories, embodying the traces of those who came before us and the emotions we leave behind.

 

This exhibition, part of London Craft Week 2025, brings together artists working across diverse craft disciplines, including metal, jewellery, glass, ceramics, textiles, paper, leather, mixed media, and natural materials such as rice, palm kernels, bamboo, cow horn, jade, elephant dung, and horsehair. Through their works, it highlights the ways in which craft allows us to capture fleeting moments, preserve intangible emotions, and create tangible connections to our past and present. From delicate threads woven with family stories to organic and time-honoured materials carrying cultural memory, craft shapes the way we remember, honour, and express what words cannot.

 

Echoes of Presence asks: How do materials carry the imprint of our existence? How do we hold onto what is gone? And how do we craft presence from absence?
