In the wake of the Europe-wide MADE IN project, the Kunstgewerbemuseum brought together the textile designer Cécile Feilchenfeld and ur-Saxon businesses. We captured the process on film, through which she developed headdresses referencing Christmas trees from the Erzgebirge, silk flowers from Arnsdorf and porcelain from Meissen. They are currently on display at the Future Legacies exhibition at the Center ROG & MAO Slovenia in Ljubljana and will be shown in Schneeberg from October on.

MADE IN - Cécile Feilchenfeldt's "Heritage Haute Couture"

The MADE IN project is a platform for research, design and heritage. Its goal is promoting an exchange between traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design and thereby highlighting the future potential of cooperative and interdisciplinary practices for sustainable, innovative and local production systems. Over 1000 craftspeople, designers, researchers, cultural and scientific professionals and members of wider audiences participate in various projects, such as workshops, courses, seminars and conferences. The Dresden Kunstgewerbemuseum and Design Campus are taking part in two residencies.

The little animals, which were conceived together with pupils from the 147th primary school, have developed illustrious abilities in order to survive in potentially extreme conditions.

Dossofiorito: Design for Plants

At the beginning of every project, there is always a trigger, a motive. It can be an intuition, a book, or an article… What sparked the idea of Plant Fever, was a conversation that Laura Drouet had with the Italian design duo Dossofiorito. Learning about their plant-conscious practice, one question arose: were there other creatives looking at the vegetal realm with respect and curiosity, using design as a means to establish senseful relationships with plants the way in which Dossofiorito were doing? ? Could this be the subject of an exhibition?
