World Fair celebrates modern heritage textiles, taking place 3 – 5 September 2020 at the historically significant Mary Ward House in London. The three-day event, a celebration of cloth, culture and creativity, will present the work of 100 artisans, bringing together varied - and in some cases endangered - textile traditions from as many countries as possible. Visitors will be able to buy direct from the makers, take part in workshops, listen to talks and watch skills demonstrations. The full list of exhibitors will be announced over the next few months, but already confirmed are Somporn Intaraprayong, award-winning embroiderer and textile artist from Thailand, Maria and Karl Wagner, fourth generation dyers and experts in the ‘Blaudruck’ technique from Austria and, Aissata Namoko, indigo dyer and Djiguiyasa Cooperative founder from Mali. Other techniques on show will include shibori dyeing from Japan, basket-weaving from Swaziland and silk carpet weaving from Uzbekistan. Following an open call for entries, a judging panel of museum curators, academics, and retail experts will choose the exhibitors, curating a diverse collection of textiles that demonstrates the wealth of heritage techniques and fibres being used in innovative ways globally.⠀ ⠀ Tickets available via www.selvedge.org, under the 'Events' tab.
