Standing Textile(s)
The performance, where we invite the audience to participate and form a giant braiding machine with us to create valuable artefacts, reveals the special dynamics of creating together and enlarges the textile technique of braiding, making it more insightful. We explored if, and how, the collective energy stimulates the emotional relation between makers, consumers and objects, and if it, in doing so, functions as a catalyst for sustainability.
Standing Textile(s)
‘Standing Textile(s)’ arose from an experimental textile research, driven by the desire to bring textile into the interior in a different way than we are used to. It embodies a growing 3D-woven collection of architectural and interior objects.
The research consciously awards the value of artisanal textile production techniques, explores its unseen possibilities, and questions the use of textiles today.
