About this event

Exhibition launch

You are invited to explore texture and pattern in architecture as found in the university’s rich archival collections and student research from the Birmingham School of Architecture. This exhibition will explore two aspects of the archives; ‘Illustrations of the textile manufactures of India’ (1881) produced by South Kensington Museum (now V&A), and rarely seen photographs of sculptor William Mitchell’s work from The Concrete Society collection. Drop into the exhibition or sign up to join our workshops to experiment with texture in form by creating your own relief-style designs. Our colleagues and students will be available to share their insight on this unique collection.
