Image/sketch that illustrates how to exhibit the work
The table/wall-mounted e-textile samplers can be arranged in a linear sequence. Each piece includes textile techniques such as darning, sashiko stitching or patching. Visitors can activate a piece directly by engaging with buttons, zips or poppers. Alternatively they can scan qr codes with smartphones to access repair videos .
