Inspired by the seamstresses, tailors and haberdashery often found in Braga’s first-generation shopping centres, textile artist Mónica Faria invites participants in this weaving workshop to explore the ancestral languages of textiles and their communicative power.
Through the act of weaving, workshop participants will be encouraged to create new bridges of contact and forms of dialogue with shopkeepers, transforming weaving into a space for meeting, sharing, listening and debating about the present and future of first-generation shopping centres.
