NOMADIC THREAD SOCIETY
I SEE My beloved friends and family, doing their b I SEE My beloved friends and family, doing their best in this magnificent life. A lot of pain and violence in the world, which seems unresolvable, and yet I pray we all get the hang of sharing our lands and resources more peacefully. I sound naive when I write these words - yet a pure wish is just that, a simple one. Through trials and losses, both personal and global, I see a lot of beauty and peace around, am grateful, and wish for all to experience this somehow, please, please, amen. @adamfreeland @m.o.z.a.i.k.o.n
MEET THE MAKERS Jessica De Lima Take a look at s MEET THE MAKERS Jessica De Lima Take a look at stories… Mirco, one of two brilliant co-conspirators in the curation and production of this SLOW HAND event, brought Jessica De Lima’s photography to my attention. What do you do these days to check someone’s work out ? Instagram of course. I arrived at her account and literally made an ohhhhhh sound out loud. What an evocative point of view, full of atmosphere, texture, story, beautiful moments captured- with an analog camera, and further, printed with a careful eye and attention to a more traditional set of components. The atmospheres and colors are captured in a moment of time, not to be repeated or rewound, no multiple versions considered. The poignancy of shooting like you mean it. I had forgotten. Check out her account and follow. @jesssicadelima More Slow Hand profiles to come and a few great ones in recent feed. @m.o.z.a.i.k.o.n @andreasender_studio @lacuevavint @ximena_bianco @thepatio_menorca @unconform.studio @canxeixa @casacalmamenorca Join us at SLOW HAND on September 30 and Oct 1 at The Patio, S’Arraval 52 for our Balearic Makers Festival.

MEET THE MAKERS Emilia Repetto La Cueva Vint I MEET THE MAKERS Emilia Repetto La Cueva Vint I have a date with Emilia on Monday, basically to shop her collection. When I landed in Menorca, her name and work kept coming up, and when I started following her mindset and makings - I was smitten. There is a jacket in her feed which has my name all over it, I mean not literally, yet.. it’s a workman’s sort of shirt with hand embroideries - messages and symbols - tagged up all over it. Like a delicate graffiti, the handwork is carefully placed, poetically delivered. The work of upcycling vintage and second hand clothing, reimagining it, giving it new life and meaning - it’s a movement in fashion. I can’t wait to play with her pieces and share them with you. Check out her account and follow. @lacuevavint More maker profiles to come and some already in feed …. @m.o.z.a.i.k.o.n @andreasender_studio @ximena_bianco @jesssicadelima @thepatio_menorca @unconform.studio @casacalmamenorca @canxeixa Join us at SLOW HAND on September 30 and Oct 1 at The Patio, S’Arraval 52 for our Balearic Makers Festival.

Meet The Makers XIMENA BIANCO 👀 Full profile in Meet The Makers XIMENA BIANCO 👀 Full profile in stories! The intricacies of her thought process have an outlet in her visual art, with an architect’s precision and an artists hand she makes works that are refined and elegant, and reflect a certain relationship to creation. Volumes and geometries transferred to paper with cuts made by hand, color applied by hand.. you get the picture. Keen eyes in the US have already inquired after a soft preview… ! And, Ximena and I are working on a sustainable design project centered around one of the worlds most renewable resources, wool. To read about Please Don’t Burn the Wool Project - click link in bio.

MEET THE MAKERS Andrea Sender 👀 stories, for MEET THE MAKERS Andrea Sender 👀 stories, for a full maker profile. If you ask me, Andrea Sender is a contemporary culture badass - a gentle, yet fierce researcher, teacher, textile artist, activist - working in her most poetic atelier in Alaior, filled with natural color, precious raw materials, looms and tools, and evocative works in process. Her interest in working from the heart and in balance with people and nature is very real and her talent for designing beautiful items with her vision is a boon for us ! We have a shared obsession with wool and the misuse of this valuable heritage resource, and we’re both committed to exploring and creating solutions. I’m excited to work with her and to watch her career continue to unfold. @llanatura @llanatura_community Join us at SLOW HAND on September 30 and Oct 1 at The Patio, S’Arraval 52 for our Balearic Makers Festival. There will be installations, workshops, very curated shopping, music, tapas, and the very best company.

MEET THE MAKERS SLOW HAND Ruth Minola 👀 stori MEET THE MAKERS SLOW HAND Ruth Minola 👀 stories, for a full maker profile. I spied Ruth’s work through the window of her atelier in Palma de Mallorca - her mirror birds called me in. We spoke - her smart, curious eyes and light yet very present mosaic art making magic come to life around me. I imagined having some of her mirror musings dance across a wall of a future home. I guessed there would be people wanting her work in their restaurants and bars, in boutique hotels, in meeting places, offices, etc… Her spot in Palma is in the Callejon Sant Feliu, a special, tucked away alley full of intriguing creatives.. it’s one of the discoveries that paved the way for me jumping into Mallorcan and Balearic contemporary culture. Check out her account and work. @m.o.z.a.i.k.o.n Keep an eye out for more maker profiles! @ximena_bianco @andreasender_studio @lacuevavint @jesssicadelima @thepatio_menorca @unconform.studio @theheartbitsessions @canxeixa Slow Hand, our Balearic Makers Festival is happening on September 30 and October 1 at The Patio.

Aish is still selling like hot cakes, too, last year’s activation marches on.

Life is so outrageously full spectrum, in flux, what a ride. Bless us all.
