The Subversive Stitch — María Carbonell (Centre del Carme)

Ciutat Vella

María Carbonell transforms traditional needlework into a feminist weapon at this bold exhibition at Valencia's Centre del Carme. Expect provocative stitched works that challenge gender roles and celebrate the radical potential of a craft once dismissed as "women's work."

Tips

🧵Look closely at the stitching techniques—Carbonell often embeds hidden messages within the needlework itself.
📸The Centre del Carme's Gothic cloisters provide a stunning backdrop for photos of the textile installations.
🎧Pick up the audio guide at reception; it offers deeper context on how traditional 'women's work' becomes political statement.
