Weaving Language examines the poetics of weaving traditions through historical research as well as contemporary practices. Attempting to dismantle and rebuild commonplace understandings of the history of writing, WL focuses on fiber-based forms as a longstanding but often overlooked medium for record keeping, storytelling, and poetry.
