THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Amina Agueznay and curator Meriem Berrada discuss Asǝṭṭa, Morocco’s Venice Biennale pavilion, in an ART AFRICA interview with Suzette Bell-Roberts. The installation brings wool, raffia and embroidered threads into an architectural environment developed with 166 craftspeople. Their conversation considers weaving as living knowledge, the visibility of collaborators and the threshold as a space of encounter. Both resist treating craft as a fixed inheritance separate from contemporary artistic thought.
