NextNOW Fest: Human Loom Workshop with Alyssa Imes
Come enjoy the process of becoming part of a human loom! This will be an immersive and interactive 1.5-hour workshop in which the artist Alyssa Imes will use both of your arms as part of a loom ped. As the group sits in a circle, Alyssa will loom and knit a fabric from your arms. Slowly the network of knots will start to form a large, circular piece of fabric. The concept behind this performance is that we all are part of this network that weaves each other's lives; if one person were removed from the loom, the fabric would fall apart.
