- Centenary celebration of a remarkable mid-century textile designer
- Helen Grey-Smith had a long career in Western Australia as a textile designer, painter and maker of collages. Ceaselessly inspired by the physical world around her, Grey-Smith’s subject matter reflected her deep engagement with the landscape and flora of WA, and her fascination with the Asian culture of our region.
