Today I am sharing some explorations into “tactile textiles,”, a term coined, as understand it, by Anni Albers, tactile textile artist/weaver!
Such works and materials become spaces, places, rooms, lands, terrain, forests…tactile explorations into the unknown, guided by, among other things, the sense of touch, a tactile sensibility.
