.@LydiaCCole and I are super excited about our latest collaborative and creative output: a collective textile produced with incredible International Relations and International Security Masters students from the @univofstandrews, @EdinburghUni and @UofGlasgow! (Thread)
Lorina Bulwer, needle-worker incarcerated in the 'lunatic ward' of a UK Workhouse in 1894, created large scale samplers as a way to voice her experience, highlighting her protests at her treatment and grim conditions #womensart
This is such a great piece of embroidery. Made by a young mum, stuck at home and desperately trying to find inspiration for doing some creative sewing, she chose this. It’s her washing machine!
Thanks to the wonderfully creative participants at our @MYBISA panel, there’s now an impromptu exhibition of textile and collaged reflections on #BISA2029, the discipline and academia @ThreadsWar @StitchedVoices
#BISA2019 A type of panel BISA might never have seen before... @ThreadsWar @LydiaCCole @GillianMcFadyen
From the textile sessions I occasionally run: @DmitryChepurnoy makes a t-shirt design based on a drawing of #Sviatohirsk from #mentalmap by Oksana which she made during an interview with @fuala_julia (Donbas Odyssey art project). @ThreadsWar #donbas #donbass #publicengagement
