Superhouse presents Shared Ground, a two-artist exhibition bringing together the sculptural basketry of Sarita Westrup and Lewis Prosser. The exhibition stages a transatlantic dialogue between South Texas and South Wales, examining how inherited craft traditions are reworked as contemporary practices shaped by place, memory, and environment.
Westrup and Prosser each approach basketry as a living language rather than a fixed form. Westrup’s woven structures draw on the material cultures of the Rio Grande Valley to reflect on border, belonging, and transformation, while Prosser’s practice engages British craft traditions through sculptural form and performance, emphasizing ritual, humour, and social exchange. Seen together, their works frame weaving as a knowledge system that carries history while remaining open to reinvention, positioning craft as a means of connection across geography and time.
