Author and the founder of the project  â€˜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.

English version Mi sono avvicinata al quilting nel 1992, da allora ho frequentato diversi corsi in Italia e negli USA per approfondire le tecniche del patchwork, passando dai disegni tradizionali o geometrici alle tecniche artistiche con cui posso esprimere la mia creatività. Insegno le tecniche base e avanzate dal 1998. Ho fondato la Scuola Romana Quilting nel 2015: http://www.scuolaromanaquilting.it/ e dal 2014 organizzo a Roma la mostra di ArtQuilting: ArteMorbida. A partire dal 2018, con la collaborazione di Maria Rosaria Roseo e altre colleghe/amiche abbiamo iniziato la pubblicazione di ArteMorbida Textile Arts Magazine. Oggi ArteMorbida è anche, finalmente, una rivista cartacea. Parola d’ordine: Divulgazione!
