Textile art has deep roots in both vernacular and aristocratic practices in Africa, Asia, and Europe. In the past decade, it has transcended its origins to burst on the global art scene as a prominent medium at major art fairs, with works by the most acclaimed textile artists now fetching in the millions. WHAT WEAVES US TOGETHER presents a cross-section of the world’s rising textile artists, who bring together heritage in textile cultures and international artistic careers.
WHAT WEAVES US TOGETHER is presented by Galerie Mitobo under curatorial guidance of Tis Kaoru Zamler-Carhart and Vitaly Zamler.
