Workshop
E – Embroidery Workshop
When traditional textiles meet modern technology, what are the potential possibilities?
This workshop blends traditional embroidery craftsmanship with e-textile technology by infusing fabrics with electronic components. It not only challenges the conventional perception of embroidery as a static art form but re-explores the potential of embroidery. Our instructors will introduce the theory of electronic textiles and guide participants with simple embroidery techniques, constructing electric circuits on the fabric, and adorning it with LED bulbs to craft an illuminated firework decoration.
