Author and the founder of the project ‘Asia-Europe’ – contemporary fiber art exhibition is Erny Piret and the idea of a dialogue in contemporary textile art was born on the occasion of the Biennial of Kaunas (Lithuania) in 2009.
The exhibition ‘Asia-Europe’ presents innovative artistic creations in relation with Asian and European countries and their textile techniques.
The selected artists come from China, Korea and Japan, from Asia and European countries – France, Sweden, Latvia, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Finland, Slovakia and Spain.
Their works represent intercultural dialogue and although they are geographically distant, coming from two different continents, they are connected by the thread of art: linen thread, computer embroidery, thread, canvas thread, mulberry bark, banana fiber, silk, wool, organza, copper, fishing line, tulle, bread.
