Fibre2Fabric

Fibre2fabric Gallery - is an exhibition space in Luang Prabang, Lao PDR. The gallery curates and presents different exhibitions every year. In this way a large body of information and textiles are collected that form a permanent exhibition. The gallery was founded by the directors of Ock Pop Tok in March 2006. The gallery is presided over by a board of advisors from various local governement departments. Even though the gallery is independent of Ock Pop Tok business practices it is seen as an extension of it's activities.

Fibre2Fabric’s first exhibition featured Ikat Textiles (for more information please see the website, (www.fibre2fabric.org/ikatexhibition).

Fibre2fabric’s Mission - is to produce a series of free exhibitions that focus on hand crafted textiles as a way to explore and explain Lao culture. Our mission is to document and demonstrate the production and cultural significance of textiles from various regions and ethnicities in Lao PDR.

The exhibitions are in Lao and English text; therefore making the information accessible to locals and foreign visitors. Our ultimate mission is to advocate the preservation and production methods of textiles of all peoples in Lao for the heritage of all Lao peoples.
