Woven Words (2024 - 2025)
Textile installation / Stereo sound / Community workshop series 

Created by Linnéa Duckworth, Laura Selby and Kristina Kapilin
In partnership with Sands End Art and Community Centre 


Woven Words takes inspiration from Robert Macfarlane’s Landmarks and The Lost Words. The project explores how language shapes our relationship with the natural world. Macfarlane’s work highlights a growing disconnect between people—especially in cities—and the precise vocabulary that describes landscapes with intimacy and care. Woven Words takes this fading language as a point of departure.

The project brings together the artists’ practices in experimental sound, writing, and textile installation, along with work created during a workshop series at Sands End Arts & Community Centre. These workshops invited participants to take part in listening exercises, reflective writing, and cyanotype-making in South Park.

Woven Words invites audiences to look, listen, and reflect on the often-overlooked sounds, textures, colours, shapes, and atmospheres woven into London’s urban nature, and aims to restore a sense of wonder through sensory and material exploration.
