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."
