Interweaving artistic knowledge, learning led-by-design and mindfulness, the project positions textile craft at the crossroads of critical pedagogy and sustainable politics. Through practice-oriented workshops, experimental art-led-learning formats, and artistic research, Embodied Textiles develops and tests new pedagogical approaches that integrate holistic, body-centered awareness into production processes. This project is a collaboration with Dr. Hanna Hofverberg from Malmö University, a design research environment and a hub recognized for its critical inquiry into sustainable design, experimental prototyping, norm creativity, and collaborative learning.
