Flow by Meg Dalton

  • The Front Gallery & Cafe 84 Wattle Street Lyneham, ACT, 2602 Australia (map)

Meg Dalton is a mixed media textile artist working in Ngunnawal and Ngambri country (Canberra, Australia). Her passion is hand embroidery, using thread and other media to explore the form, tone, and texture of landscapes both real and imagined.

Meg began her art practice in the mid-2010s to find a more creative application for her study of geospatial information systems. Her work reframes the traditional crafts of needlepoint and weaving as contemporary art practices, beyond the shackles of cross-stitched throw pillows and colonial wall-hangings.

Her textile practice grew from small aerial landscape embroideries, through to larger-scale loom weaving, and into more abstract multi-media pieces. Her current body of work, Flow, explores visual movement in a two-dimensional space.

Flow is a textile exhibition representing a study of movement, tactile experience, and colour, through a series of hand-embroidered and woven pieces that you just want to reach out and touch.

Exhibition runs from 30 January to 12 February 2026

Opening Night Friday January 30 6pm-8pm
