{"product_id":"ganaele-langlois-how-textile-communicates-9781350386945","title":"How Textile Communicates","description":"Textile has been used as a medium of communication since the prehistoric period. Up until the 19th century, civilizations throughout the world manipulated thread and fabric to communicate in a way that would astound many of us now. Unlike text and images, textile is haptic and three-dimensional. Its meaning is unfixed, constantly shifting as it circulates between different owners and creators. In How Textile Communicates, Ganaele Langlois dissects textile's unique capacity for communication through a range of global case studies, before examining the profound impact of colonialism on textile practice and the appropriation of this medium by capitalist systems.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n A thought-provoking contribution to the fields of both fashion and communication studies, Langlois' writing challenges readers' preconceptions and shines new light on the profound impact of textiles on human communication.","brand":"Bloomsbury Visual Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53730036810070,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/ganaele-langlois-how-textile-communicates-9781350386945","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
