Keynote speakers and presenters will consider different interpretations of vision – not just the act of seeing, but of reflecting, imagining, and manifesting. As inherently visual objects, what can textiles tell us about ourselves and our histories? What can we learn from narrowing our focus on the past, or gazing into the future?

DATES: Friday 30th April - Sunday 2nd May, 2021

LOCATION: Auckland University of Technology, corner Wellesley Street East and Mayoral Drive, Central Auckland in the Sir Paul Reeves Building, room WG 308 (subject to change).
