Pomaire seminar

CREA for Pomaire seminar, Pascale Gatzen




Pascale will talk about the process of collaboration with the Mayan women artisan group, Ajkem’a Loy’a in San Lucas Toliman in Guatemala. She will give examples and illustrate insights and challenges from two different projects. In 2009/2010, Pascale developed in collaboration with the women a woven tracksuit for W139, one of the main art spaces in Amsterdam. In the summer of 2009, she traveled with 5 students from the New School in New York to work with the women to help them further their design skills. Together they created a series of bags that will soon be available for sale in the US.
