Textile Textures: Multithreaded Narratives is a collective volume edited by Marta Kowalewska, an outcome of the international project "Interweaving Structures: Fabric as Material, Method and Message" organized jointly by the Central Museum of Textiles in Łódź, the Bergen Faculty of Fine Arts, Music and Design, and the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. The book explores the medium of textile, regarded from the perspectives of art, history, anthropology, technology, politics, post-colonialism, museology, curatorship, and fashion, as well as from personal points of view taking shape amidst questions on identity, tradition, craft, collaboration and kinships with architecture, design, and industry. Individual themes are examined in relation to the issue of textile being a tangible medium of memory and a unique language which, by virtue of its nature, interweaves a variety of different themes.
