    Issue seventeenth features an interview with Peter T. McCarthy. He was born in Australia in 1979, Peter obtained a Bachelor of Applied Arts (craft arts) from UNSW. Though totally in love with textiles and weaving, he did not immediately commence professional art practice, but instead retrained as a primary school teacher and spent ten years in volunteer teaching in West Africa. Political instability meant significant personal and professional upheaval. He consequently turned from teaching to professional art practice in 2019. Since then, he has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in Australia, Côte d'Ivoire, France, Portugal, Spain, and South Korea. His work was recently recognized in prestigious international events, namely the Loewe Craft Prize 2022 and Contextile International contemporary textile art biennale. The Surface Design Association recently awarded Peter T. McCarthy in their annual exhibition in Print for his unique and unusual use of materials. Peter lives and works between Sydney, Australia and Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire.
