Fabric Visions

Between substance and idea

The exhibition showcased ten artistic approaches to the medium of textiles and moved between the boundaries of display and participation. Many of the works referred directly to the Esche Museum or were created on site. The focus was on the ecological and socially sustainable use of textiles and fashion, which was addressed in the presentation and the numerous accompanying events. On the opening day, performances, activities, machine demonstrations and music invited visitors to experience the exhibition in a lively way. The artists were available for discussions and open exchange.
