South Australian-based creative Kasia Töns is going from strength to strength.

A textile artist living and working on Peramangk and Kaurna Country, Kasia has exhibited both nationally and internationally, and undertaken residencies in Iceland, the United States of America, Latvia, and the Slovak Republic.

Supported by CreateSA’s Arts and Culture Grants Program, Kasia explored scale, process, and engineering to develop her solo exhibition Panoply.

Continuing her exploration of themes such as displacement, housing insecurity, the rising cost of living, and climate-related environmental threats, Panoply II takes the form of a life-sized, womb-like cubby. Hand-sewn using reclaimed silks, cottons, threads, and stuffing, Kasia describes it as her ‘most rewarding project to date’.

Kasia’s work has been featured in solo exhibitions at MARS Gallery Melbourne and Ararat Gallery TAMA, and in the Radical Textiles exhibition at the Art Gallery of South Australia.

She also appears in the accompanying book by Rebecca Evan and Leigh Robb and has exhibited at Snøhetta Adelaide and Central Studios in Kent Town.

Kasia Töns is currently the recipient of a CreateSA Arts and Culture Grants Fellowship.
