About

Vanderhurd transforms its Notting Hill studio into a dedicated exhibition space, taking visitors on a journey through its latest collection and opening Christine Van Der Hurd’s unseen personal embroidery archive to the public for the first time.

Intimate and interactive, ‘Sands of Time’ offers a fascinating portrait of one of the world’s most creative textile ateliers through a carefully curated installation of finished pieces from its first 2023 collection, displayed alongside revealing artefacts including sketches and paintings, samples, photography and behind-the-scenes video footage.

Exclusively for London Craft Week, Christine Van Der Hurd invites the public behind the scenes and into her private studio. Here, visitors can meet the multifaceted artist and discover more about her creative practices, inspirations, life and work while exploring the incredible embroidery archive first-hand.

The London Craft Week event marks the first of ’50 Over 50′: a year-long programme of events, exhibitions and collaborations launched to celebrate Christine Van Der Hurd’s 50th year of a career at the heart of design.
