Weaving as worlding practices with earth beings (WeB)

Guided by a distinct more-than-human apprehension of the world, Weaving as Worlding Practices with Earth Beings (WeB) invesitates design practices of co-creation in two communities. The I.N.S.E.C.T. community composed of western scholars, artists, designers, and biologists, and the Sarayaku people, and iondigenous nation of the Ecuadorian Anazon with ints committee of yourng acitivsts, called Samaruta.

Combining in situ and remote experiences, WeB creates modalities of learning and doing that emerge in shared moments with human and non-human beings and through tangible communication with clay, wood, skin, and textiles. First, artefacts transit across the two communities to demonstrate tangible, vibratory, and acoustic qualites of connecting different aesthetic worlds and the arefacts will remain in the two communities as a represenation of our cross-cultural weaving.
