LIMB LOOM

A textile using human body parts would be a visually striking piece that combines traditional weaving techniques with innovative design elements. The design could take the form of a tapestry-style piece woven using a combination of natural and synthetic fibers, and incorporating various weaving patterns and textures. The human body parts used could include shapes inspired by hands, feet, or limbs, and could be woven into the textile using embroidery, appliqué, or beadwork techniques. The name of the textile would likely be a reflection of the artistic vision and intention behind the piece, and could draw inspiration from its patterns, textures, or cultural/historical references.

WW2

As the war began, many of the Bauhaus artists and designers were forced to flee the country, scattering their ideas and philosophies across the globe. This diaspora helped to spread the principles of the Bauhaus, influencing design and architecture in countries such as the United States, Britain, and Israel. Additionally, the wartime shortage of materials and resources forced designers to embrace minimalism and simplicity, two key tenets of the Bauhaus philosophy.
