Soft power – How Textiles Can Talk Back

February 03, 2021

Textiles have long been a vehicle for protest and resistance, from the embroidered tapestries made by Chilean women during the Pinochet dictatorship to the monumental quilt memorializing those who died in the AIDS pandemic. This talk, hosted by Crafts magazine, will explore fiber art’s relationship with politics and activism, and the makers and artists – both historical and contemporary – who use it to call for social change. Moderated by curator Dominique Heyse-Moore (The Whitworth Art Gallery), this panel includes Anya Paintsil, Ibrahim Mahama, and Aram Han Sifuentes (ACC 2019).
