Fiber Fever Summercamp : From textile to composite
5 partners challenge 12 designers on a 8 days 24/7 summercamp to make, eat, play, learn and meet in the Timelab jungle.
My name in Ankit Kumar and I'm currently studying MA in Social Design, Year 2 at Design Academy Eindhoven. I have a Holistic, Fluid and at times playfully unpredictable approach, that resonates in my style of working. Still in the process of defining my practice, though my experience working with Indian traditional craftspeople and communities, made me understand the importance of culture and regional practices in Design, and inclined my interest towards studying Social Design. I finished my bachelor study in Textile Design after which I was working across India and Asia, with handloom weavers and handicraft makers, to work at various local problems.
