A new room for a doomed loom - and the battle to save Australia’s slowly dying crafts. Jacquard loom
When a university's rare weaving device was destined for the skip, a collective of artists, teachers and students united to rescue it. They bemoan how course changes are replacing deep skills with competency checklists.
This Jacquard loom, now stored in The Ballarat Arts Incubator's loading dock, was decommissioned by RMIT in 2022, and saved from landfill by a small group of weavers and students associated with the school.
Volunteers are slowly restoring the 3m-high, half-tonne loom, which requires compressed air and a complex mix of analog and digital hardware/software to function.
