Yuki-tsumugi, silk fabric production technique
Inscribed in 2010 (5.COM) on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity
Yuki-tsumugi is a Japanese silk-weaving technique found principally in Yuki City and Oyama City, along the Kinu River, north of Tokyo. The region boasts a warm climate and fertile lands, which are ideal for the growth of mulberry trees and sericulture. The Yuki-tsumugi technique is employed to produce pongee silk (also called raw silk) – a light and warm material with a characteristic stiffness and softness, traditionally used to make kimonos. Production of the material includes several stages: silk floss is spun into yarn by hand, with patterns added by hand-tying bundles of yarn before dyeing the yarn, then the silk is woven using a back-tension loom. The silk floss for the yarn in Yuki-tsumugi weaving is produced from empty or deformed silkworm cocoons, otherwise unusable for the production of silk yarn. This recycling process plays a significant role in supporting local sericulture communities. The traditional techniques to produce Yuki-tsumugi are transmitted by members of the Association for the Preservation of Honba Yuki-tsumugi Weaving Technique. This association is directly engaged in maintaining traditions of spinning, dyeing and weaving, passed down from generation to generation within the community. It promotes transmission of Yuki-tsumugi through exchange of skills, training of young weavers, and practical demonstrations. -Source: http://www.unesco.org/culture/ich/en/RL/yuki-tsumugi-silk-fabric-production-technique-00406

Weaving with the Thread of the Memory: stitches of dignity in the middle of the war
During three months a tour of Mexico was carried out, taking to some spaces the exhibition titled "Weaving with the Thread of the Memory: stitches of dignity in the middle of the war", in her, the work of a collective of Colombia conformed by Women survivors of the armed conflict who, through what they knit, began to denounce the injustices and the stories of violence, becoming visible when using the fabric as a narrative medium. The experience was shared with groups of weavers from Mexico City, Guerrero and Chiapas, and fabric and memory workshops were held. This documentary shows the route of the exhibition at its crossroads in Mexico, reflects on the bridges that are woven between collective activity, creativity as an expressive means to heal and above all, the transformative potential of the reality that spaces have to create, Narrate and knit.
