Several of our graduates showing this week at the Dutch exhibition ‘iFABRIC’ at the Tilburg Textile Museum, with Kate Goldsworthy opening the exhibition with a ‘Textiles Futures’ presentation on Friday 23 September alongside Christine de Baan, program director of Dutch Design, Fashion and Architecture.
Designers featured include:
- Natsai A. Chieza
- Berit Greinke
- Siwen Huang
- Laura Martinez
- Elaine Ng Yan Ling
- Marin Sawa
- Elisa Strozyk
The museum presents a young generation of highly promising designers from Europe who are active in the fields of fashion, interior textiles and design. There is a striking interest in the latest scientific developments, such as those in microbiology, which often results in collaboration with biologists and chemists.
Another aspect that stands out is the consideration for the emotional aspects of fashion and design, which places a greater focus on the material and the surface structure of objects. But what does the actual practice that awaits them involve?
i FABRIC is one of the highlights of the cultural programme of the Tilburg Textiles event, which is being organized in the context of 2018Brabant. BCXSY, the studio of the young designers Boaz Cohen and Sayaka Yamamoto, is responsible for the exhibition’s graphic and spatial design, as well as for the design of the accompanying publication.
