Curatorial Note
About the Exhibition: Hella Jongerius – Slimme handen
The exhibition is a playful introduction to Jongerius's creative process and shows connections across her work, from early experiments with textile and vacuum-formed plastic to large recent textile installations. Themes include craft and industry, colour and material, and innovation and sustainability.
Visitors see fabrics for Maharam with weaving samples, preliminary studies for installations, her research into colour and three-dimensional weaving, and textile samples for the KLM Business Class interior. Highlights include the donation of her complete textile archive and the Knitted Lamp prototype.

The Museum
Explore Museum Guide & Permanent Collection → TextielMuseum
The Textile Museum is the largest cultural center in Italy dedicated to the appreciation of ancient and contemporary textiles, costume and fashion. Prato's textile district has its origins in the Middle Ages and still stands today as the most important in Europe. The Museum's headquarters is in the restored premises of the former Campolmi Cimatoria, the last major textile factory of the 19th and 20th centuries within the medieval city walls of Prato and today an important tourist destination for lovers of industrial archaeology. The Museum's holdings consist of an outstanding collection of artifacts documenting the art of textiles and fashion from the past to the present day. The Museum continuously renews its contents by displaying the collections on a rotating basis and organizing temporary exhibitions.
