People were invited to explore collaborative tapestry weaving and other than verbal ways of communication. Using reclaimed yarns as tools for drawing and connecting, the invitation was to explore both sides of these suspended nets to create a collaborative piece that aimed to weave many voices and ideas and facilitated conversation and intimacies. In the publication I made, there were some suggestions as invitations to think about bodies of water, hydrofeminism and the Walthamstow Wetlands with quotes from the very inspiring Astrida Neimanis .
