Hello and welcome to this special edition of The Grateful Web: Rogue Studios 30@30 celebrating 30 years of Rogue Artists’ Studios in Manchester. During the 30 day run-up to our annual Open Studios, I’ll be sharing a daily short podcast featuring one of our studio members, highlighting the incredible diversity of practices that make Rogue such a vital creative community.   ✨ Today on  Rogue Studios 30@30 we’re thrilled to introduce you to Lynn Setterington🧵✨Lynn is a textile artist whose work weaves together community, history, and storytelling. She creates tactile social history documents with local and global communities — raising awareness of social issues and amplifying overlooked voices.In the 1990s, Lynn gained recognition for her hand-sewn embroideries and kantha quilts, and today her work is held in major museum and private collections worldwide. She’s also undertaken numerous commissions, and her practice continues to evolve in powerful ways.Her PhD from UCA draws on E.P. Thompson’s idea of “history from below” 📖, focusing on the sewn signature as both method and approach — old and new. You can find Lynn’s work at https://lynnsetterington.co.uk and @lynnsetterington Join us at Rogue Artists’ Studios on Saturday 20th September 12-8pm for our 30th anniversary Open Studios and the launch of  exhibition Soft Proof.
