Woven Stories: Weaving a Kilim Carpet
A kilim is a traditional flat-woven textile created by interlacing warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) threads. Known for its vibrant colours, bold geometric motifs, and expressive patterns, kilim weaving is both a highly skilled craft and a distinctive form of textile art.
In this course, we explore a new approach to traditional weaving by using story as our inspiration. Through colour, pattern, texture, and composition, participants will explore how a narrative can be translated into a woven textile, creating a contemporary interpretation of this timeless tale.
The course invites participants to consider weaving not only as a craft, but also as a language through which stories, emotions, and cultural memories can be expressed and preserved.
