Textile Art Biennial The Textile Art Biennial BIEN 2023 connects four Slovenian cities: Kranj, Škofja Loka, Jesenice, and Nova Gorica. The central theme of this year’s art event is the “Sun”. Myth, legend, the sacred. The one that creates shadows. The key element of our decline and survival. Energy and source. The reason for socializing, meeting, and creating textile art together. Art and community. Creating meanings and practices of textile culture, where repetition and duration are inseparably linked. We invite you to explore slow art. Let the biennial exhibitions be both an inspiration and a warning. Its art projects explore the dangers brought by the growing environmental and climate crisis, while also emphasizing the pleasant qualities of warmth, growth, and support emanating from our brightest star, the only one we see during the day. Growth and degrowth, as ultimate consequences of our ambivalent relationship with the Sun, are at the forefront of BIEN 2023 exhibition projects, workshops, talks, and events. Let it shine. Zala Orel
