About the Initiators

Selina Gasser

Riehen

I am an artist whose practice explores the metaphorical and cultural-historical dimensions of textiles, particularly their connections to interdependence, relationships, and the social fabric of our lives. Alongside my artistic work, I teach a variety of textile techniques through workshops and I initiate participatory projects that promote the visibility of women and foster dialogue around peace.
