Rooted in textiles, performance, and installation, Chloe Bensahel’s work addresses the relationship between narrative and material, text, and textile. Inspired by the historical relationship between textiles and technology, she examines how materials carry stories the way bodies do, sometimes covertly as embodied or coded language. Previous projects include collaborations with Google Arts and Culture Foundation, The Cooper Hewitt, Design Museum, and Palais de Tokyo. She is an affiliate researcher with MIT’s Media Lab, with Future Sketches.
