TALKING TEXTILES WITH LI EDELKOORT & PHILIP FIMMANO: CREATING CHARACTER
Join Li Edelkoort and Philip Fimmano for a 90-minute live webinar to discuss CREATING CHARACTER. Focusing on how characters can counterbalance a loss of passion for dressing up and how the creative community is working hard at keeping the memory of textiles alive with extraordinary characters created from scratch, waste, and shreds. Dressed by contemporary fiber artists and textile designers, these characters are extremely expressive and use a maximum amount of material, making them endearing and frightening at the same time, as much a doll as a devil in disguise. Young graduates have especially taken to the task of exploring identity and have used the pandemic years as a pause button to understand their innate needs for expression. The results are a multitude of daring ideas that lay bare the soul as much as the body. Performance art, dance, and video are often part of this new world of textiles.
