Visit the Murray | Ahead of the Curve - Australian Modern Quilts…

For quilters, the curve is both a technical challenge and a creative opportunity.

Ahead of the Curve showcases the artistry and ambition of Australia's modern quilters through this dynamic form. From improvised compositions to bold geometric designs, the quilts in this exhibition reflect a fearless approach to both technique and artistic vision, embracing risk and innovation in form, colour, and scale.

The works highlight the skill and creativity of their makers, demonstrating how a single shape can inspire a diverse range of interpretations – from complex detail to striking simplicity. Together, they celebrate the spirit of modern quilting in Australia today, pushing boundaries and reimagining the craft.
