Exhibition “Sewing universes: homo faber, homo ludens.”"



Current (art)esania is not just the prefigured image we have in our collective imagination, codified from antiquity to the 18th century. Human disruptions have been changing its perception, but the industrial revolution changed everything. Despite this, the prestige of artisan creation – the remoteness of the craft, the echo of the material worked with the hands – has survived to this day. Today, the return to (art)crafts reveals a drive for humanity, for materials that breathe nature, for crafts that root us in time and place, in identity and in identities. This edition of the Biennale wants to be an open invitation to sew universes, to cross the blurred border between craft and art, between hand and machine, between ancestral memory and emerging technology. You can consult more information about the exhibition “Sewing universes: homo faber, homo ludens” on the website of the Catalonia Crafts Center. Last update: 10/30/2025
