Paper Trail explores paper as both a weaving medium and a form of documentation. Through her handwoven works, Lin Qiqing traces the stages of her creative process while reflecting on migration, language, and memory, drawing from a range of textile traditions and techniques across cultures.

Lin Qiqing (b. 1991, Guangdong, China) is a textile artist and former award-winning journalist. She tells stories of migration, memory, and identity through figurative weaving made with hand-spun paper yarn, natural fibers, and paper-fabric collage. Working on a hand loom and using labor-intensive processes such as papermaking, dyeing, and spinning, she transforms materials into woven paintings and installations. She received her MFA in Textiles from Parsons School of Design in 2023.

Contemporary @ Heirloom spotlights fiber and textile artists, highlighting their process, unique themes, and the ways in which traditional techniques are celebrated and pushed forward

Come join us to view Qiqing's work and learn about her process and inspiration with an artist Q&A. As always there will be plenty of snacks & libations!

Floral Rya Rug - 5'2 x 7'

In Anatolian weaving traditions, such additions often carried protective or symbolic meaning. Knotted cords, dangling fibers, and small beads were believed to function as apotropaic elements, intended to ward off the evil eye and protect the household. These expressive embellishments transform the textile from a simple utilitarian weave into a more personal and talismanic object.

$450.00
