Shushanik Droshakiryan – Psychedelic Textiles: Luxury in Space
Please note: Due to a technical issue during recording, most of this lecture was captured without sound. Unfortunately, that part could not be recovered. What remains are the final minutes — a short film Shushanik shows and the closing Q&A — but we still wanted to share this part of her lecture with you.
Shushanik Droshakiryan is an interdisciplinary designer blending biomaterial research, textile art, and environmental awareness in immersive installations. She redefines textiles as sensory-driven, dynamic materials that engage light, touch, and movement. Known for her use of Dutch wool waste, she transforms raw wool into large-scale, sustainable pieces, challenging conventional production and waste. Her exhibitions, including those at Munich Fabric Start and Dutch Design Week 2024, offer multi-sensory experiences.
