One of the best books read recently, devoured in a couple of days. A formative reading for our students, but especially for us. Thank You @silviolorusso.bsky.social!

I had the honour of presenting my research “Beyond Domesticity” at the #ProsperityFashion conference at University of Florence. My paper reclaims textile arts-often dismissed as “women’s work” as powerful forms of relational art that foster community, ethics, and care.
