I am so lucky to be able to attend this
event in Hong Kong. Some pre-conference talks and exhibitions have already started.
In the last couple of weeks, Edith Cheung from Cloth Haven gave a talk on the use of wool in Traditional clothing, and Yoshiko Wada gave one on 'Slow Fibres'.
Below are some of the images from the exhibition:
Animal Fibres: Art Informs Shibori.
All the images are taken by me and if you use any text or images, please link back to here. Thank you.
