The TACTIL/TEXTIL exhibition brings together a selection of works created over the past 10 years by a group of graduates from the Master's program in Textile Design at the University of Art and Design in Cluj-Napoca. The works reflect a shift from a traditional view of textiles to an interdisciplinary and fluid approach that incorporates contemporary concepts. These pieces are characterized by a variety of materials and techniques, as well as a semantic complexity that transforms them into tactile experiences associated with feelings of protection, comfort, and naturalness, familiar to our connections with dwelling and material cultures.
By integrating experimental textiles and innovative technologies, the exhibited works transcend the boundaries between art and design, offering new conceptual and operational directions in art. These pieces deconstruct and reinterpret materials in a hybrid manner, creating new types of artistic and design objects that blend functionality with artistic expression.
