How do textiles narrate memories?
"My memory is driven by objects, or by feelings about natural scenes. I wanted to transform these fleeting images and intangible, fragmented memories into tangible textiles. Therefore, I have "written" a book using textile language to narrate my story in a tangible way, where words translate into textures, verbs transform into the action of touch and subjects are replaced by colours and patterns."
Peipei Wang is a textile artist and weaver. Her main inspirations come from nature and human emotions. Through exploration of colour, texture and the sense of touch, her work aims to create a personal textile language that narrates memories and seeks to represent intangible and fragmented nostalgic feelings of her hometown.
