Many textile arts skills enjoy Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) status: from Indonesian batik to pagne weaving in Côte d'Ivoire, via the art of embroidery in Palestine, all testify to the same desire to make and give body.

The round table Textile arts, reflections of identitiesproposes a reflection on the role of textile arts in the construction and expression of individual and collective identities. Through intersecting perspectives (historical, aesthetic and anthropological), speakers will explore how textiles participate in cultural and social dynamics, between traditions, know-how and contemporary issues.

Moderation: Catherine Poujol, professor of Central Asian history and civilization at Inalco
