A public peer-review of Liisi Tamm’s first case study will be held on December 17th at 16:00–17:30 at the Estonian Academy of Arts, room A202. The case study is part of a creative doctoral thesis analyzing design practice and methods of working with wool to determine its influence on design decisions and the designer’s role in meaning making.
Supervisors: Jaana Päeva PhD (EKA) and prof. Aet Ollisaar (Pallas)
The peer-reviewers are Ave Matsin and Nithikul Nimkulrat PhD (OCAD University)
The first case study focuses on the process of creating the material – making wool yarn. It examines how working directly with wool – from sorting and washing to hand- and machine-spinning – shapes textile students’ experience with the material, influencing their design process, aesthetic choices, and attitudes toward the value of local wool.
