About
Cynthia Hathaway is a designer and artistic researcher. She is founder of WASA, Wool Alliance for Social Agency, promoting a variety of practices, people and organizations related to wool, including transhumance (the walking of animals to and from pasture), shepherds, and wool recyclers. The aim is to bring to light, safeguard and learn from the expertise woven within wool’s fibers.
Projects produced by Hathaway, such as the Sweat(er)shop, D-Stillery, Wool Mountain Pakistan and The Wool March create public and other-than-human meeting spaces where through the lens of sticky systems of wool, we can learn ways to walk more nimbly on the planet. By relating to, for example, economics, public space making (the commons), landscape regeneration, and community building through best practices of wool production, provides ways to approach and change current extractive and exclusionary systems.
Hathaway collaborates with a number of organizations, such as TextielMuseum Tilburg, Het NoordBrabants Museum, Huis van de Toekomst, Avans University, Utrecht University, World Hope Forum, Future of Work Foundation, Feniks Emancipatie Centrum, the shepherds and sheep of Schaapskudde De Loonse en Drunense Duinen, and Datini Fibres.
