Interwoven Histories - Contemporary Art, Migratory Narratives and Textiles

In Interwoven Histories: Contemporary Art, Migratory Narratives and Textiles curator and textile researcher Christel Vesters unravels the intricate connections between textile, history, and society from a contemporary art perspective. Through essays and detailed examination of five seminal works of contemporary art, she looks at textile and textile techniques as a medium and as a mediator, exploring how textile objects – old and new – bear witness to histories and stories that are often marginalized or forgotten.
