Kim Sacks Gallery presents Touch Wood, a group exhibition showcasing a collection of woven tapestries, botanically dyed fabrics and, as the name suggests, an abundance of wooden objects of exquisite beauty.

The premise for the show is works created in the medium of wood or utilising wood as a core part of the process. The exhibit also features gifts handmade from local plant matter, as well as a curated selection of artefacts and objects from across the African continent. Though it occupies the small Makers Room gallery space, each work in Touch Wood is given ample breathing room. It's an exhibition to rouse all the senses. 

The show features the intricate beauty of woven tapestries by Leila Walter, botanically dyed embroidery by Kaross and Ira Bekker, hand-carved wooden pieces by a diverse group of talented artists, including Allan Schwarz, Gabriel Powell, Geoffrey Armstrong (whose incredible wooden carvings showed at RMB Latitudes this year), impossibly delicate, folded paperworks by Maia Levan Lehr-Sacks, and more.
