This exhibition is a collaboration between designstudio Ateljé Grotesk and the weaving group Studio Supersju. Ateljé Grotesk compiled a selection of typefaces designed by women from the late 19th century until today. The members of Studio Supersju then interpreted these digital, two-dimensional typefaces into works of textile, without restrictions. Through their works, the art of lettering has been given a tactile and three-dimensional embodiment. Members from Studio Supersju will be on site every day.
