JESSICA HEMMINGS
”ONE DECADE OF WORDS: textile writing 2008-2018”
Monday April 8, 2019 at 18.30
”In this lecture I will try to explain how my textile interests migrated from threads to words. The
many places I have called home over the past decade have fuelled, but perhaps also
dictated, writing as my material. Words are portable. But equally important to my interests
has been a desire to stay as close as possible to the material of textiles, while offering a
contribution perhaps more useful than my own weavings could sustain.”
Jessica Hemmings is Professor of Crafts and Vice-Prefekt of Research at HDK, Gothenburg
This lecture is part of the series ”Undersökning pågår”. Previous lecturers have been Maja Gunn, Matt Smith, Jonna Bornemark and Per Johansson.
