An inspiring talk by Cat Siversten which makes you ponder over the choices you make, rethink about sensibilities of place, and blend it all into a beautiful piece of art. #iwau2023 #textile #art

Currently eating peanut butter out of a jar 4 lunch because that’s sometimes what it takes to run the week-long #feminist series of events called #inspiring #women among us. The stories, reflections, research, & resources shared during #iwau2023 continue to amaze. @IWAU_Events
