Re.Stance Panel: Living Systems
Sunday, May 31 | 1:45 PM - 2:30 PM
$10 | General
$5 | Students & Textile Museum Members
Join us for an afternoon three-part panel series at the Textile Museum of Canada, presented by Re.Stance, exploring textile histories and cultural memory through ancestral knowledge, circular and regenerative design systems in practice, and future material innovation through decolonial thinking and biofabrication.
Panel 2: Living Systems — Circular Design, Regenerative Materials & Tech Innovation; 1:45-2:30 PM
Living Systems centers creators as builders of circular futures. Moving beyond theory, the panel explores how regeneration, repair, and reuse show up in daily practice—and how “waste” can be redefined as a resource.
It also considers the role of technology in scaling circularity, alongside the gaps between innovation and infrastructure. The discussion focuses on how artists can shift behavior, extend lifecycles, and bring circular design into the mainstream without losing cultural grounding.
This programming is produced in collaboration with Re:Stance as part of the sustainable fashion symposium Temporality: A Love Letter to Gaia.
