Transfer

Helen Aitken-Kuhnen and Mio Kuhnen

Transfer, heralds the first time that Bilk Gallery co directors, and mother and daughter team, Helen Aitken-Kuhnen and Mio Kuhnen have exhibited exclusively together.

Each artist will present their own bodies of work, and as the title suggests, these works highlight how each transfers their thoughts and inspirations into wearable objects. The exhibition also and more broadly investigates the transfer of skills, ideas and knowledge between mother and daughter and daughter to mother. A relationship you might describe as more complex, more fraught and also more rewarding than just that of mentor and mentee or teacher and student.

Essays by Nola Anderson and a catalogue will accompany the exhibition.
