Costume and Textile Symposium


  • Auckland University of Technology 55 Wellesley Street East Auckland, Auckland, 1010 New Zealand (map)

This annual symposium will be held in Auckland this year and no doubt be full of interesting textile stories, studies and presentations that have reflected our lives during the past year or so. I will be talking about my vintage hand crank machines and their very different role they play today.

Excerpt from the event :

Keynote speakers and presenters will consider different interpretations of vision – not just the act of seeing, but of reflecting, imagining, and manifesting. As inherently visual objects, what can textiles tell us about ourselves and our histories? What can we learn from narrowing our focus on the past, or gazing into the future?
