Set against the background of our digital, fast-moving society, Weaving Conversations experiments with textile design as a practice of social connectedness. People gather in different places in order to weave together, without having any prior expertise or a fixed goal. A deliberately low-threshold access to weaving techniques creates an open social space for informal exchanges and collective experiences. Combining individual threads is a symbol for the emergence of collective structures. The workpieces and processes form a digital, accessible, open and growing archive that makes community visible as a constantly newly woven fabric.
Weaving Conversations is an invitation to think about new forms of future togetherness and to actively co-shape social spaces.
