So how do you approach that, starting from something that inspires you to create an autonomous work of art? Past inspiration was drawn from a guided tour of Museum de Kantfabriek. From there, the participants proceeded step by step, under the guidance of Erna van Sambeek and learning from each other. The personal, creative process that each

participant enthusiastically embarked upon led to extraordinary, surprising textile works of

art!

The exhibition includes an information folder with texts and photos about the process and the artworks.

Participants: Hetty de With, Jolanda Rietdijk, Christa Driessen, Paulien van Asperen, Monica van Leent-Bergkamp, Gina Vos-Spijk, Margreeth Heijs, Anja Rooijakkers
