Teaching goals (program content, subject description)

Students who choose to specialize in the Artistic Tapestry Studio have the opportunity to learn about techniques that fall within the scope of broadly understood textiles. You can learn to weave, crochet, embroider, sew, weave macramé, dye, paint on textile surfaces, make batik, shibori, felt.
We are committed to creating unique works in the studio, going beyond the craft. Therefore, the teaching of techniques is completely subordinated to the realization of original works, and the gradual development of workshop skills always goes hand in hand with the development of creative individuality. Our students look for new applications for traditional techniques, they modify and combine techniques or use unusual materials. They embroider on foil, make batiks on advertising prints, create patchworks from receipts, and sew sculptures from old clothes. Their works reflect the growing interest in global issues in contemporary art. Climate catastrophe, extinction of species, overproduction, and consumerism are just some of them.
Our didactic goal, besides taking care of the formal and technical aspects of the works, is to encourage critical reflection on culture, to shape ethical and responsible attitudes, and to encourage social activism. We want the studio to be a place of independent artistic search, a place of experience exchange, an enclave of artistic freedom with respect for others. We believe that fabric is an important, current medium which quickly reacts to current phenomena in art and culture. We do our best to create interesting works on a high artistic level, set in the realities of contemporary art.
