Augusta Gallery presents Soft Assemblies, an exhibition highlighting innovative techniques of joining, weaving, and braiding. Through research and experimentation, six European designers interlace reused and natural elements to create new forms and transform spaces.

For this exhibition, Agnieszka Mazur crafts sculptural lamps and objects from discarded sand, inspired by the traditional sandcastles on the beaches of Zeeland. The collaboration between Amandine David and Esmée Hofman explores contrasts by combining digital techniques and basketry to create sculptural containers. Textile designers Juliette Berthonneau and Justine Gaignault experiment with textures, juxtaposing dense patterns with translucent areas as they felt linen and wool weaves into decorative and functional textiles. Laure Kasiers unveils new wall rugs featuring abstract motifs, employing a technique she developed using interlaced strips of wool and linen.

The exhibition explores a new facet of the transformation of materials through connections, intertwining, and the rhythm of successive layers.
