We are honoured to announce that afra eisma will be part of the upcoming group exhibition Haus of fibre at TextielMuseum, Tilburg. This exhibition shines light on the role of textiles in the work of artists from the LGBTQIA+ community. The group exhibition takes place in the setting of a house, complete with a living room, kitchen, bedroom, hallway and garden. This layout is inspired by the shared experience of queer people having to create their own home and family in order to live safely outside the framework of the classic cisgender, straight family.
