20 Perspectives was founded in early 2022 by a group of 20 international artists from four continents and nine countries: France, Hungary, Great Britain, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, Canada, and Australia. They create three to four collections per year for exhibitions, each based on a theme chosen by the members. Members contribute one or more textile artworks to each collection, creating 20 perspectives on the same theme. The group’s goal is to: grow their community by creating collaborative art, improve their artistic practice, exhibit their work within their community and at international exhibitions. To achieve their goal, they meet (virtually) approximately once a month to discuss future projects and exhibitions, and a second time each month to exchange ideas outside of the project. In 2022, the group’s first year, they have already exhibited their work at Patchworktage in Meiningen (Germany), the International Textile Art Biennale (France), and the Pacific International Quilt Festival (USA).
