Saturday, 17 April, 10:30am (Hong Kong, UTC+8) Friday, 16 April, 9:30pm (Chicago, UTC-5) Chicago-based label Rebirth Garments (Sky Cubacub) and Hong Kong-based social enterprise Rhys (Ophelia Keung and Kadri Keung) create tailormade garments for marginalised bodies with care. Imbued in both practices are the respect, empathy and celebration of the stories, needs and intimate desires of the individual. Brenda Rodriguez Alegre, lecturer in gender studies at the University of Hong Kong, connects the experiences of the two to examine: How do textile technologies serve as media to express care and love for others? This panel is part of Poetic Emergences: Organisation through Textile and Code, a 4-day online Discussion Forum held on 16 – 19 April, 2021 that gathers the voices of local and international creative practitioners including weavers, programmers, philosophers and community workers to investigate the transformative processes of textile and code.
