MaP is a collective of applied artists based in Wales. It was formed in 2001 by a group working on the Contemporary Textile Practice degree course at Cardiff School of Art & Design (UWIC) who felt the need for a supportive network of creative, innovative and like-minded makers. All have a strong academic and professional background with a wealth of complementary experience in a surprising variety of fields - stitch, weave, print, knit, constructed textiles, digital textiles, illustration, metalwork and jewellery. Some already have national and international reputations and are not only passionate about their own work but keen to expand the audience for contemporary art and craft by raising its profile increasing links within and outside the sector, researching new techniques and encouraging others to become involved.
