Textiles are a mysterious expression of a particular place or human labor. Unassuming patterns or textures naturally reflect the topography of a location and the foodways or culture of a people. Recompiling traditional Thai expressions using modern digital fabrication technology gives us the feeling that we have seen this before, somewhere both nostalgic and futuristic. It is almost as if one can hear the breath of the Thai women working at the loom.
