DETAILS ABOUT THE EVENT

Description / Program:

A workshop inspired by the Carnation Revolution, where participants use fabric scraps to create a textile carnation through layered compositions and zigzag stitching, exploring textiles as if they were painting.

The word will also be explored as a visual element through writing with a sewing machine, drawing words directly onto the fabric or using textile elements.

Each participant will develop a textile composition where image and word intersect, applying their work either onto a textile base (raw fabric) or onto a personal garment.


Each participant will:

• create a fabric carnation (layered composition)

• explore writing with a sewing machine

• develop a personal phrase (e.g. “My freedom is me”)

• integrate all elements into a textile piece or base


Required materials:

• sewing machine (can be provided if needed)

• basic sewing kit (threads, pins, fabric pen)

• white glue or UHU

• garment (optional)


Duration:3 hours


Price:€50 (includes textile materials needed for the projects)


Mentor:Sílvia Garrido
