Heide Stoll-Weber

Since 1986 Heide Stoll-Weber has lived and worked in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. In 1994 she started her own business, farbSTOFF, a studio and workshop for hand-dyed cotton fabrics. The German and European textile community quickly embraced her fabric, particularly since the elaborate colour palette of the hand-dyed material complemented and expanded the range of industrially produced fabrics available at the time. Between 2001 and 2007 she developed textile designs for FreeSpirit Fabric, New York, based on the characteristic gradations and multicoloured fabrics of the farbSTOFF studio production. In addition to numerous solo shows across Europe she participated in most of the big international juried exhibitions such as Quilt National, European Art Quilts, Visions, or the European Quilt Triennial.

Judith Mundwiler

Ever since her childhood, the examination of textile material has been an important part of Judith Mundwiler’s leisure activities. Animated and inspired by her mother’s sewing, knitting and crochet handwork, she began creating objects, dresses for puppets and eventually even own dresses. During her 4-year training programme as a textile craft teacher she learned the professional handling of diverse textile and non-textile materials and techniques. The inner urge to visualise her feelings and thoughts through textile art grew stronger over the years. In 2002 she was given the opportunity to present her works to a broad international audience in France, in Val d’Argent during the European Patchwork Meeting. Website of Judith Mundwiler

Ricarda Aßmann / Hans König

Ricarda Aßmann, born in 1963, has been dealing with felt and textile work since 2004. She works mainly as a freelance lecturer in Germany and abroad and has been organizing felt and textile art exhibitions for several years. Her own creations are exhibited internationally. She is enthusiastic about felt because it »warms like a loving embrace«, it is alive, strong and resilient, and she experiences this material as the materialized language of the hands and soul. With her Gestalt therapy training, she especially appreciates the feeling of working with felt to realize impressions, thoughts, souls’ landscapes – to make elementary human emotions visible, and to deal with life themes. For her, this is all only possible with felt and not as good with any other medium. She published the book »FilzFrauen« together with Hans König. Website of Ricarda Aßmann

Hans König, born in 1963, has been working as a journalist and photographer since 1985, focusing on motorbikes and music. As editor of the magazine »freizeitguide aktiv«, his main focus in recent years has been on the topics of camping and tourism – since 2010 he has focused on felt and textile arts, too. On request, he offers seminars and workshops for felt and textile manufacturers who would like to put their works on the photographic stage. Together with Ricarda Aßmann he published the book »FilzFrauen«.
