Textiles are among the oldest technologies - older than pottery, as ancient as storytelling. Soft carriers of culture and utility, shaped by hand and intention. Woven, knitted, knotted or felted, textiles have always been more than material, they are extensions of the body, markers of belonging, and maps of movement across time and territory.

Only in the past few decades, during the rise of fast fashion and mass production, has this ancient craft turned into an ecological concern. Yet, this crisis also reveals their potential: textiles remain adaptable, resilient, and deeply cultural materials, offering pathways for reuse and imagination.

Textile topography is a pavilion for textile repurposing.

The process is mixing weaving, a simple and time consuming craft with open source technology knitting machines. - resulting in a series of decorative weaves.
