If you are interested in issues surrounding provenance and the restitution of objects in museums, come to this talk by Aba Eyifa Dzidzienyo on Wednesday eventbrite.co.uk/e/african-obje…
Fellow textile people! Has anyone seen any fabric like this before? I’m thinking it’s furnishing fabric inspired by 18th-century Spitalfields silks, made in the late 19th or 20th centuries. I would appreciate any thoughts or leads. Thank you!
I've been awarded an Alborada Fund grant to work with Aba Eyifa-Dzidzienyo, University of Ghana. We are interested to meet curators and academics to discuss textiles and history, social justice, gender, environmental issues, diaspora, Ghanian artefacts& provenance PM to meet us.
I'm really looking forward to this talk on Monday.

All of these are sold, among others, in Casa de La Paz - La Trocha in #Popayán where @Un_Stitching Gazes held another textile resonance workshop hosted by the #Manuelitas. Do go and visit this space when you’re next in Popayán - it’s great!
