In the hope that you might find these interesting, please find attached
two Calls for Papers. Both are for a combination of theoretical and
practical work on textiles.
The European Textile Forum, taking place at Mayen, Germany in November
2018, is a conference aiming to connect practical and theoretical
aspects of textile research.
Craftspeople and archaeotechnicians profit by learning about new textile
finds and detailed presentations of them, while archaeologists,
conservators, historians and other researchers can get valuable input
about the craft background of the pieces they work on, how they are
made, and the limits and possibilities of the textile techniques
employed.
The second call is for an IONA conference session which
will
take place in Vancouver April 2019.
The session is interested in exploring the creating of textiles and
their finishing from a practical perspective and how other practioners,
academics and those with a general interest in the subject view it, and
how they
can work together to take research forward.
For more information, please see the attached files.
