Smo partnerji novega projekta, imenovanega reDiscover. V sodelovanju s petimi partnerji želimo z inovativnimi pristopi približati tradicionalno rokodelstvo oblikovalcem tekstila, ki delujejo danes. Tradicionalne tehnike in znanja ustvarjanja s tekstilom s celotnega evropskega območja je neizkoriščen vir, ki lahko na zelo učinkovit način podpre profesionalni razvoj in izpolnitev mladih umetnikov. Prva faza projekta je organizacija medkulturnih delavnic za študente, kjer sodelujemo s SŠOF in SIC Ljubljana.
Dr. Ayşe E. Coşkun iz İstanbula (Turčija), se nam bo pridružila v Kranju na dvodnevni delavnici 20. in 21. junija. Je industrijska oblikovalka, akademska raziskovalka, ki jo zanima povezava starih tradicionalnih znanj in sodobno oblikovanje. Delavnica »The New Olds: Contemporary Interpretations of the Past« se osredotoča na interpretacijo posameznih tradicionalnih proizvodnih tehnik, rokodelskih veščin, vzorcev katerega koli proizvodnega procesa, ki odraža edinstven pristen vizualni jezik, naj bo to oblika, vzorec, okrasni element, tekstura ali nekaj čisto drugega.
Projekt reDiscover financira Evropska unija.

The New Olds: Contemporary Interpretations of the Past
Culture consists of learned patterns of thought and behaviour that are characteristic of a particular community. Culture includes beliefs, values, language, political organization, and economic activity, also technology, art, and material culture. A commodity is an item that can be freely bought and sold through the market economy. All commodities (even raw materials) are cultural artefacts in the sense that demand for them is culturally constructed. This module focuses on the conceptualization of the traditional commodities with reference to their manufacturing techniques, crafting qualities, symbolic values, contextual meaning, and their everyday functions.
The workshop focuses on the interpretation of a particular traditional manufacturing techniques, crafting skills, a pattern of any manufacturing process that reflects a unique, authentic visual language be it a form, a pattern, an ornamental element, a texture etc. Participants will team in pairs. They will research for a traditional workshop and will carry out field research observing, documenting the manufacturing / Crafting process. After this phase they are expected to come up with new ideas, concepts of the analysed technique and propose new product languages for the contemporary every day.
