Simple Weave

Join Swedish textile artist Kerstin Neumüller for a virtual lecture in honor of her newly translated book Simple Weave. Drawing from the Swedish rigid heddle weaving tradition, Kerstin began exploring what it meant to carve her own small looms in 2020. Her quirky designs featuring animals, people, and buildings attracted plenty of attention and led to the publication of a book in Sweden called Simple Weave in 2021, with an English translation scheduled for release on January 19, 2023! In this book talk, Kerstin will share her story of becoming a working craftsperson and author and her approach to the small weaving projects featured in this new book.

Simple Weave is available at the ASI Museum Store in both Swedish and English editions as of winter 2023.

Organization Details:

Nearly 90 years ago, a new immigrant to Minnesota had a vision to create a vibrant cultural gathering place. Established in 1929, ASI has evolved into a dynamic arts and cultural center that welcomes all people to gather and share experiences around themes of culture, migration, the environment, and the arts; informed by enduring links to Sweden. From the gallery spaces, featuring local and international exhibitions, to the lively programming set in the historic Turnblad Mansion, to the shop, and award winning restaurant and café – there are many ways to see yourself at ASI and be part of this story.
