The interns of 2025 

In 2025, nineteen interns worked at the TextielLab. They collaborated with specialists, learned to operate the machines and materials, interacted with artists, designers, and museum visitors, and had the unique opportunity to create their own work during their internship. This led to many remarkable results, some of which are highlighted here.
