Textile Narratives explores the reinterpretation of ancient textile practices to create new forms of storytelling through tactile designs that incorporate coding and rhythmic elements. The aim is to recode textile structures using traditional techniques, resulting in hybrid textiles that tell multilayered stories.
By blending multiple narratives within these soft designs, the project highlights themes of environmental disaster, particularly forest fires (a continuation of its series), while showcasing the connection between computational methods and storytelling. These narratives weave together factual data, personal reflections, and evocative imagery, such as the echoes of burned trees.
This approach provides a platform for diverse voices and cultural perspectives to be woven into a unified narrative, creating a tapestry that blends ancient textile wisdom with contemporary fabrication and design methods.
