Textile landscapes of Pomerania I Knots and Patterns 2026

Knots and Patterns 2026: Collective Memory Landscapes Across three art and research residencies, the project focused on textile heritage as a living carrier of collective memory, shaped through social relations, situated knowledge, and sensory experience. While each context addressed distinct historical and cultural conditions, the shared inquiry revolved around how textile practices transmit memory, identity, sustainable practices and values through both dis/continuity and trans/formation. An important element of the Polish residency was learning about textile traditions through the senses, for example, the touch of fabric, the smell of wool, and the sound of a spinning wheel. The relationships between communities, heritage experts and artists made the team realise the importance of direct transmission of textile traditions, but also of creative reinterpretation of traditional techniques, motifs and patterns that can be incorporated into the ethno-design trend. The project Textile Landscapes of Pomerania was led by Monika Górska and Aleksandra Paprot-Wielopolska, and implemented by the Department of Ethnography of the National Museum in Gdańsk. Three partners from Slovenia, Greece, and Poland explored the textile heritage of the regions in which they are based. On the basis of artist and research residency projects, two exhibitions were organised, presenting 26 textile and audiovisual artworks. In addition, the project developed a collaborative digital archive of local textile heritages, documenting the creative processes and presenting the outcomes through a digital storytelling tool.
