Up until the 19th century, civilizations throughout the world manipulated thread and fabric to communicate in a way that would astound many of us now. \u003cbr\u003eUnlike text and images, textile is haptic and three-dimensional. Its meaning is unfixed, constantly shifting as it circulates between different owners and creators.
