Quilt Workshop
🎨 Photo documentation of the "Community Paint & Quilt" Workshop that took place in June.
As part of the exhibition program for “Democratic Encounters: Harare & Munich,” Fépar – Living Room for the BIPoC community & friends – was invited to co-lead the workshop together with curators Sophie Eisenried🧚🏼♀️🍉 from HABIBI KIOSK & Zakirah Rabaney from Lothringer 13 Halle.
The public, friends, children & neighbors painted patterns, drawing inspiration from the artwork of Zimbabwean guest artists of Artist in Residence Munich Grace Nyahangare Prudence Grace Nyahangare & Gresham Tapiwa Nyaude gresham. They were in Munich as part of a residency in celebration the 30th anniversary of the Munich-Harare sister cities partnership.
The textile paintings were then sewn together by Sophia O'David into a communal quilt that was presented as part of the exhibition “Democratic Encounters.” Afterwards, Fépar used it for their “Summer Community Picnic & Sound” at Lenbachhaus’s “Bunter Garten Ciao" earlier this month.
Watch out for more uses of our community quilt at events by Fépar, HABIBI KIOSK & Lothringer 13!
