Textiles have fueled the creative inspiration of artists throughout history and provided the catalyst for technological innovation. From the “jacquard machine” in 1801, which simplified the manufacture of textiles and later became the inspiration for IBM's first computer introduced in the 1940s and 1950s to emerging technologies in artificial intelligence, this exhibition investigates the relationships between craft and technology.
