A bit about
​us & Ryijy

This weave of wishes initiated as a joint project by Arlene Tucker and Daniel Malpica that depicts belonging and cultural diversity.

Tucker (TW/USA) is a visual artist, inspired by translation studies she finds ways to connect and make meaning in our shared environments. Malpica (MEX) is a poet, producer and graphic designer. He is co-coordinator of the multilingual literary project Sivuvalo.

​Ryijy: weaving wishes was first presented at Maailma Kylässä in May 2016. The material collected will later be used to make a Finnish traditional rug, a ryijy, composed of public secrets.
