The ways that materials and garments are created, are in a constant change. There are continuous dialogues between the appearance and functionality of the clothing. Sustainable design examples emerge as alternatives next to the mass production, and technology integrates into garment production means in different levels. Exploring alternative futures for textile and garment production, the exhibition presents examples from diverse interpretations of connecting textiles with technology. Textile Futures talk offers the opportunity to meet with the designers, artists and technologists behind the exhibition work to understand more their vision for the textile futures.
