FOCUS ON FIBRE ART BIENNIAL COMPETITION 2010 'GREEN'

Focus on Fibre Art Association
Edmonton, Alberta - Canada


'Green', it's not just a colour. It represents a lot of things. It's spring. It's wood nymphs and water sprites on the forest floor. It's the green of Ireland. It's little green men from Mars. It's jealousy. It's hope and joy. It's nature and growth and so much more. It's Robin Hood and his merry men. It's immaturity, it's youth. It's an ecological movement and a political party. It's the heart chakra from Asian shores. It's nature, regeneration and the renewal of life. It's the go in a traffic light. Green symbolized so many ideas in different times and places of the world. What does green bring to your mind? Mix a little blue and yellow together and show us your version of 'Green'.

Textiel Festival 2010

Deadline: October 1, 2009 (POSTMARK)

Textiel Festival 2010

Stidoc and the Breed Textiel Overleg International
Leiden, Netherlands
March 24 – 28, 2010

Theme: ‘Sporen’ (‘Tracks or Traces).

Tracks are visible references or remainders of something that once was.
Eddying in the water (wind), graceful lines of graffiti (paint) or patterns on fabric (textile) are different expressions of this.

Tracks can be found outside in the landscape, but also in cities and villages, street plans or wall posters. Tracks can also be found inside, like old wall papers, wall paintings or upholsteries. Tracks colour our life in commerce, industry and religion.

The Dutch word spore or spoor is derived from the Greek spora. Every organism leaves a ‘spoor’ for a shorter or longer period of time. A ‘spoor’ is from something, a human intervention, a memory of what once was.

The Maya-woman weaves her personal history and her experience of being Maya into her creations. Her garments are her memory in which she preserves her memories of the mythical stories and of the world view as passed on from generation to generation.

From tube-shaped molecules, thousands of times smaller than a hair, exceedingly strong and electrically conductive threads are made, making it possibly to equip clothing with all sorts of technical gimmicks like antennas and batteries.

What tracks are we leaving for the future?

In 2010, under the auspices of STIDOC, the 4th edition of the Textiles Festival will be organised by Breed Textiel Overleg (BTO)(Wider textiles consultation): the cooperative of Weefnetwerk (Weaving Network), Landelijke Organisatie Kant Kunst Nederland (LOKK)(National Organisation for Lace Arts Netherlands), Merkwaardig Vereniging Liefhebbers Merklappen (Association for Sampler Lovers), the NbvP,
Vrouwen van Nu (National Union of Rural Woman Today’s Women), the Quiltersgilde (Quilters’Guild) and the Stichting Textiel Plus (Foundation Textile Plus).

All textile techniques are permitted, choice of materials is free, format is limited: two-dimensional 50 x 50 cm (20 x 20 inches) or 200 cm in circumference, three-dimensional 35 x 35 x 35 cm (14 x 14 x 14 inches)including finishing.

The submissions of the juried competition can be seen at the Textile Festival 2010, from March 24 – 28, 2010, in the Pieters-church in the city of Leiden, the Netherlands.
