Last week, students from the department textil.kunst.design from the University of Art and Design Linz took a field trip to the Mühlviertel region to visit local textile companies. Once known for its rich linen tradition, the area now hosts a wide range of textile production. From rope making and traditional weaving to bedding and even fire hose manufacturing, there was a wide range of textile techniques to discover.

The exhibition ‘colourful elements’ shows a deliberate selection of works by Arezou Shayesteh Sadafian, an artist who was born in Tehran in 1975 and has been living in Austria for several years. Her artistic practice stems from her enthusiasm for colour, her interest in abstract forms and her focus on the materiality of textiles. She explores the aesthetics of textile surfaces and investigates how their properties and textures constantly give rise to new design potential, far removed from traditional textile uses.
