Weaving Futures



Esch, Luxembourg
August 2023 – ongoing



Julina Vanille Bezold, Samira Mousa, Fadi Chéquryah, Josiane Mangen



During this atelier participants invested in different ways of up-cycling textile waste and used clothes. Together, they engaged with notions of identity, and feed conversations of our inner world with the environment and communities we are part of. Participants were invited to engage with several textile design techniques, such as embroidery, garment construction, pattern making, weaving and patchwork. From this creative process they made new baskets and wearables for the community.

 






By up-cycling post-consumer textiles collected from and around Sanem, the atelier aims to engage critically and creatively with this cycle. Working with materials such as textile waste and left-overs from production, the participants are invited to speculate on how our relationship with products and materials can be more sustainable and meaningful.
