Textile Landschaften - Drop-In-Workshop für Kinder und Erwachsene mit Merle Richter

In the organizer's words:

The installation Desire Lines by the artist collective Rent Collective in the exhibition Wandel Landschaften is inspired by the Plänterwald and the human experience of being on the move in the forest. Based on this, the drop-in workshop invites you to explore and create.

Using stand magnifiers, we will examine bark, leaves, mosses and lichens and discover their small landscapes. The sounds of the installation serve as additional inspiration. We then create our own landscapes from textiles: Fabrics are roughened, braided, frottage and shaped so that textile reliefs grow - small, tactile landscapes between perception, material and imagination.

Merle Richter is an artist and art teacher. Through close observation and intensive reflection, she investigates moments of entanglement between living beings that arise in her immediate surroundings. Her practice is characterized by conceptual, research-based and performative approaches as well as working with and through different materials, which she understands as a collaborative process. Her pedagogical work and experimental teaching practice aims to stimulate dialog and discourse and to explore the question of how "material" and installations with "material" can contribute to initiating processes of aesthetic self-education.
