Die Dinge in die Hand nehmen

We are surrounded by objects whose manner of functioning and form are beyond our control. Their machine-polished surfaces blind us with an image of perfection that brooks no unauthorised change. The open workshop encourages people to chip away at this image – in the field of clothes and other textile objects – and to take things into their own hands. The best time for this is when things fail: cracks, holes, stains, but also when something becomes unwearable this can be used as an opportunity to regain power. In return for defective items, stories and ideas brought along by participants, the change team offers the expertise of experienced designers and craftspeople and instruction in a number of simple techniques (printing, needle felting, sewing, darning, ironing, wild patterns, working with latex and Sugru).
