Speaking of: Textiles

Green dot on white background

The next session of our symposium series is just around the corner. This time, we’re diving into the world of textiles—exploring the theme from three complementary angles: Mads Barfod, fresh from his win on the DR show Danmarks næste tøjdesigner, will represent the spark and joy of creation. Sara Diaz, founder of the Berlin-based company Hilo Textiles, develops open-source tools for textile repurposing, showing an example of how to make recycling more accessible. Finally,
Kirsti Reitan Andersen, professor at KADK, brings more than a decade of global textile research to the stage. Her work connects the dots between academia, industry, and sustainable methodology.

In between the talks, we’ll have a vinyl DJ providing atmospheric tunes, affordable drinks at our bar, and Arabic-inspired vegetarian food from DoMore’s own food truck.

Please RSVP through link below. We can’t wait to spend this afternoon with you!
