SECOND LIFE EXHIBITION
EXPERIENCE ZOFFANY'S SECOND LIFE EXHIBITION AT VOYSEY HOUSE
Zoffany, in collaboration with the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust (QEST), is delighted to offer complimentary bookings for the Second Life Exhibition at Voysey House in Chiswick. Register for tickets today.
Running from 9th September to 3rd October 2024, the Second Life exhibition will showcase the creations made by selected QEST scholars who have transformed the fabric used at the Zoffany x Benedict Foley Entrance Hall at this year’s WOW!House into revelatory new designs.
These makers will present – in the forms of fashion to art – a reimagining of Zoffany’s Long Gallery Brocade, a wool and cotton fabric woven by one of Suffolk’s last remaining silk mills and dye houses using traditional techniques and 100% natural fibres.
These pieces will be suitably exhibited in the historically compelling Voysey House. A Grade II*listed building designed by the celebrated Arts & Crafts architect and designer C.F.A. Voysey, as a wallpaper factory for Arthur Sanderson & Sons, the Voysey House showroom will transform, presenting a gallery from which these works of art can be viewed and experienced.
Please note: Entry is complimentary, and by appointment only.
THE EXHIBITION
This partnership with QEST, a charity that funds the training and education of aspiring craftspeople, is part of Sanderson Design Group’s Live Beautiful commitment to reimagining the entire life cycle of products. From the sourcing of raw materials through to how products are manufactured and the process of sales and distribution, the overriding objective is to minimise environmental impact, which will in turn protect and preserve the heritage of its brands and the legacy of craftsmanship in design and manufacturing.
