Textile Talk with Kandy G Lopez

Welcome to Textile Talk, the podcast from the School of Stitched Textiles, where we sit down with artists, makers and thinkers shaping contemporary textile practice. In this episode, we are joined by textile artist and educator Kandy G Lopez, known for her large-scale stitched portraits that explore identity, visibility and presence through fibre. This conversation moves between studio practice, teaching, experimentation and lived experience, offering thoughtful insight into what it means to make work that is both personal and political. This episode is available in video format here on YouTube, with closed captions included for hard of hearing viewers.
