Threadbare

Julia Douglas, originally from Edinburgh, is a textile artist interested in domesticity. She was artist in residence with Deveron Projects during 1999.

Huntly has a strong tradition connected with the knitting industry. After many decades of bringing prosperity to the town, this industry was closed down and ceased to exist in the early 1990s. What is the current relationship with textile craft in Huntly, and is it still a site of industrious labour? What do the people that worked in the former knitting mills do now?
