In his Manifest pour métamorphose du monde (Manifest for the metamorphosis of the world) the great philosopher Edgar Morin, Pierre Gonod and the artist Paskua declared in 2009 that unders tanding the world is becoming impossible on account of the current fragmentation of thinking. They preach the development of a global conscience and the safeguarding of human unity and diversity. Metamorphosis implies the wish to transform visions and perc eptions. Our vision is fragmentary, as our mental barriers can often be stronger. In enhancing this vision, it seemed essential that on should discover, contemplate and reflect so as to be able to appreciate the particularity but also the diversity of text ile arts, of fibres and techniques in fibre art. In a more and more globalised world, textile arts can offer representations of society and humanity in search of a new identity.
