“Landscaping in Fabric” is an attempt to showcase (inter)actions of beings, human, non-human, living, and not, with textiles as a medium.
24 pieces of fabric woven in Tilburg, NL, buried in multiple locations of Arnhem, NL, and Kyoto, JP, and mended by me or workshop participants in Amsterdam, NL, are currently on display at Van Eesteren Museum for the group exhibition Nieuwelingen. An accompanying publication on the process of the project is also on display.
