A Line Becomes a Thread explores Walker’s interest in art and fashion through the many ways they inform and influence each other. As someone embedded in both worlds – as an artist, fashion educator, textile researcher, and with a family history in the garment industry – Walker inhabits a unique intersection.

The works in this exhibition explore this symbiotic relationship and its connection to individual and collective histories through the use of the artist’s own manipulated garments and thrifted finds; textile remnants, repurposed prints, and sustainable materials.
