This book was published to accompany an exhibition of the same name at Salts Mills, Saltaire, Yorkshire, UK, in summer 2012, conceived and directed by Lesley Millar MBE, Professor of Textile Culture at the University for the Creative Arts.
The exhibition and accompanying publication includes work by the artists Beverley Ayling-Smith, Carol Quarini, and Bob White. All visited Salts Mills and Saltaire and have created their work as a response to the history of the place: the memory of cloth and the making of cloth that has seeped into the fabric of the building.
This exhibition is the first of two; Cloth and Memory 2 taking place in 2013
