One of the embroderies in support of Palestine shown at Köttinspektionen.
Rebellbrodöserna
A group of textile creatives, meeting to embroider informed by reflections on society, democracy, climate-, species-, and environmental crisis, from an ecofeminist perspective. We value community building and care, for each other and all life on our planet. We are no embroidery virtuosos, but we want to challenge and reshape the world using thread and needle.
Activation: 15 November 2024 at Köttinspektionen, Uppsala
(EN)
Rebellbrodöserna invited the public to a workshop where they wanted to embroider their solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for freedom. Embroidery allows space both for processing emotions and expressing different messages. Gathering around embroidery, allows to create a safe space for collectivity and reflection.
The aim of the workshop was not to learn advanced embroidery, but to engage in political and justice conversations with peers while embroider.
