On Sunday 28 November, from 14.00-16.00 hours, Flóra Kovács-Wester, fellow at the TRC, will be giving a talk about "Threads, dyes and patterns: Japanese kasuri weaving, with examples from the TRC collection." Entrance is free, and coffee and tea will be provided.
Flora is the first of the fellows sponsored by the Gieskes-Strijbis Fonds. She started work at the TRC in April, and in this lecture she will talk about her research and the results of her work.
Two more fellows of the fellowship programme have been appointed and will shortly join us, and an announcement for two more fellows was published this week. They will start in the spring of next year.
Flora wrote about her first two months at the TRC in a blog that was published on 23 May, and she organised a workshop on Kasuri weaving on 30 October. She also wrote about recent acquisitions of kasuri weaving for the TRC collection (12 October).
