We are very pleased to officially announce the Weave Up+ (WUP+) project; a logical continuation of the first phase, Weave Up!, which ran from 2023 to 2025! Co-funded by the European Commission's Creative Europe program, Weave Up+ is a textile project created by five European partners: HS_Projets (France), Ideias Emergentes (Portugal), Lottozero (Italy), the Saxon Textile Research Institute (Germany), and the Mykhailo Boychuk Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design (Ukraine).
WUP+ reinvents the "Grand Tour" as a contemporary, itinerant, eco-friendly, and collaborative textile training experience. Through a series of journeys across Europe, the project reconnects designers and creators with the raw materials, innovative skills, recycling process, and European territories that shape textiles.
Based on the principles of slow travel, WUP+ encourages participants to slow down in order to better observe, understand, and experiment. Travel becomes a tool for research and creation, fostering encounters with artisans, producers, designers, and other stakeholders in the textile industry.
