Transform and Escape the Dogs, Jamie Holman exhibition at British Textile Biennial, Blackburn, 2019

Banners, silk, painting and archive brought together around the acid house parties that filled Lancashire's abandoned mills in 1989: the second summer of love staged in the ruins of the cotton industry.
