Metallic Sound

This exciting and directional exhibition showcases a collection of innovative textile designs by Professor Junichi Arai and Dr Kinor Jiang from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University.  A series of striking combinations of colour and texture, their work captures the essence of oriental style with a contemporary direction.

Bonington Gallery is proud to present Metallic Sound as part of an exhibition exchange between The Hong Kong Polytechnic and Nottingham Trent University, reflecting the strong educational links between both universities through established fashion and textiles research.
