In-Person Workshop: Weaving Data into Landscapes

Artist Tali Weinberg will guide participants through the process of materializing climate data as small unique weavings. Together, we will reflect on weaving as a practice of interpreting and archiving data and processing our relationships to the places we love in the context of climate crisis. The workshop starts with a discussion as everyone shares images and reflections on places that are important to them. Participants then select from one of the provided climate datasets and design unique color-codes before creating a personal weaving on a small hand-held loom. 

No prior experience with weaving or data is necessary. All levels, including advanced weavers, are welcome. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend Tali’s Monday morning lecture before the workshop.
