Textilles Semillas

"Textiles Semillas" is a nomadic gathering and exhibition curated by Andrei Fernandez, Michael Dieminger, and artist Ale Mirzrahi. It brings together various weaver collectives from the North of Argentina, including Randeras de El Cercado, Sliät Wichi, Tinku Kamayu, Tejedores Andinos, Flor de Altea, Flor en Piedra, Warmipura, Cooperativa Pachamamna, Teleras de Atamisqui, Teleras de Huilla Catina, Warmi Sumaj, Warmi Guapas, Tejedoras de Quilmes, and Tejedoras de Simoca. "Textiles Semillas" fosters an exchange of knowledge focused on weaving practices, the relationship to landscapes, and the intersection of art, folklore, and Indigeneity. The gatherings held with these collectives have nurtured exchanges, culminating in the formation of the "Unión de las Tejadoras, Artistas y Activistas del Norte de Argentina" (The Union of Weavers, Artists, and Activists of Northern Argentina)
