Textile Exit 26 explores bold textile expressions through craft, colour, technology and materiality.

Textile Exit 26 presents works by master’s and bachelor’s students in Textile Design at the Swedish School of Textiles. The exhibition explores immersive experiences where craft, technology, colour, texture and materiality meet. Through innovative processes and bold expressions, the students challenge boundaries between the physical and digital, sensual and practical, body and material. The exhibition invites visitors to engage with textiles in unexpected ways and experience new possibilities for textile design.
