Standing Textile
The project is to help connect communities and get them actively involved in an art project. Relying on made communities and networks, the weaving group is accessible for all. What is weaving? Weaving is a method of textile production, where two distinct threads are crossed to form fabric or cloth.
The group have two production lines set up in the centre, one is forming a large tapestry which hopes to get into central atrium upon completion. Why weaving? It’s a simpler activity than knitting. People don’t need any experience and don’t need to learn much. Anyone can do it! It provides a social gathering; it provokes people into conversation and crafts free people up! It’s wonderful to be a part of some local art and it’s community spirit at work.
