SUMMARY:Apna: Ours Yours Everybody’s

DESCRIPTION:Apna is a word used in many languages across South Asia meani
 ng ‘ours\, yours or everybody’s’. This reflects how the Whitworth shares
  the collection that is housed here. In the Collections Centre the curat
 ors hand over the reins\, in this case to Apna\, a South Asian women’s a
 rts group based in Rossendale.\n\nThis display is a collaboration betwee
 n the Whitworth and Apna\, telling stories of women between two worlds. 
 Significant textiles from their lives and objects from the gallery’s col
 lection are displayed alongside pieces they have made together\, seeking
  to revive textile traditions that are disappearing. \n\nCeremonial clot
 hes\, kantha embroidery and mirrorwork are amongst the things that have 
 been chosen from the Whitworth’s collection. These sparked a range of st
 ories\, from a monsoon on a wedding day in Pakistan to grey\, rainy days
  in the North of England. These stories - told through sessions in Rosse
 ndale and at the Whitworth - were literally spun\, woven and stitched in
 to the centre of each new piece.   \n\nApna invite you to use this exhib
 ition to come together and share stories with family and friends\, old a
 nd new.
