Sewing Ecologies began as a single workshop and grew into a series I've now led for two years across Berlin and Venice. It continues a question I first worked through by hand in Spirit 1: what it means to slow down enough for a fiber to hold something? Shifting that inquiry from a solitary practice into a collective one.

Each session invites participants to mend a broken white cloth together, meeting weekly to work the same piece by hand. Mending, here, is both ritual and method: a repetitive, spiritual process that opens space for sensitivity and exchange between people who are often strangers to each other. The white thread on white fabric keeps the labor nearly invisible, the way care work so often is, made tangible only through the collective act of doing it. Session by session, the group's mending becomes both the process and the material of the piece, carrying forward the same time-consuming, body-based knowledge behind my other works.
