About this workshop

This workshop looks at the huge mountain of textile waste that arises worldwide, from Limburg sheep wool that is often seen as waste to clothing and plastics exported to distant countries.

Together we think about a strong message and translate it into text, then weave the letters with leftover materials and textile waste in an old tapestry technique.

The workshop takes place at Marres, Huis voor Hedendaagse Cultuur in Maastricht on Friday 13 November 2026, from 17:30 to 20:00.
