I want to tell you about my friend Marianne Fairbanks. We started to chat two years ago right here on instagram, when I ordered some small looms from her, which she designed. Last summer Marianne visited me in Copenhagen and our common interest in the weaving meant we quickly became engrossed in inspiring conversations. We also talked about future projects and opportunities for working together.
On my last summer vacation I took Marianne's small ‘PocketLooms' with me to Gotland to use them as a weave sketching tool.
A wonderful way to work with weaving on-the-go and to capture inspiration from travels.
In August 21-30, Marianne Fairbanks is visiting Copenhagen to hold a workshop with WeavingLab at Copenhagen Contemporary, and you are welcome to come by and weave!
I am also a member of the research group and am fortunate enough to have been granted funding by the Danish Arts Foundation to participate in the project. Thank you very much! @statenskunstfond
