Damask For Dignity

This is a Rob Hilken (web) piece in Linenhall Street, Banbridge, and in connection with the location and the linen tradition of Banbridge, the piece features a chrysanthemum pattern (visible at Lisburn Museum) from one of the 1,600 glass plates found at the Ewart-Liddell weaving factory in Donacloney when it was dismantled in 2007 (Lisburn Museum), as well as holes from a Jacquard loom punch-card (Science & Industry Museum).

Commissioned by Armagh City, Banbridge & Craigavon Borough Council (web), with support from Daisy Chain (web).
