We warmly invite you to Soft Ties | a poetic textile workshop led by Kornel Leśniak. During the workshop, we will explore the history of artistic textiles and their current role in the field of contemporary art, as well as the new possibilities that emerge when we enrich this medium with a poetic layer.
Together, we will reflect on alternative ways of engaging with literature and how they affect the reception and accessibility of the written word. We will also discuss strategies for using creative work as a tool for building communities, creating private and public manifestos, and increasing the visibility of one’s own experience.
Above all, we will learn how to write soft love letters — telling stories of tenderness, warmth, and friendship.
