Weaving Workshop: Embedding our collective knowledge of the textile industry into the giant loom that doubled as a sail for the Reverse Ark.

Surplus string from industry.


Calibrating the loom.


A series of "yes" and "no" questions relating to textile history and currents. If a person's answer was yes, they lifted their string up, and if it was no, they bent down, thus the knowledge of group was woven into the giant loom.

Sorting and ripping the fabric. The strips were tied together and wound into an oversize ball of yarn to use in the loom.






The loom becomes a sail.
