The Finnish-Japanese exhibition is based on a textile-oriented work exchange, where the theme has been travelling in its various meanings. Saori weaving and Sashiko embroidery are adding their own spice to the works.
The Japanese aesthetic has inspired Finns since the artists of the Golden Age. Similarly, the Japanese have been particularly interested in Finnish design for decades. The themes that unite both cultures are nature, quiet work, and immersion in one's own inner world.
14 people from artist, designer, and craftsman backgrounds, as well as artist-activists and artist-researchers from different parts of the world crossed their paths in Rovaniemi. They express personal and political content through the means of embroidery and revive the tradition of quilt embroidery in a contemporary context.

The exhibition at the Craft Museum of Finland showcases miniature textile artworks that utilize both traditional and experimental methods and techniques in textile art.
The exhibition is a journey to the art of various countries and cultures. Artists and artworks were selected through an open international call. 49 artists from 25 countries were chosen for the exhibition. Voyage is a concept that is simultaneously abstract, relating to life and time, and concrete.
The optical blending of colours is evident in the textile artworks of artist professor Merja Keskinen, as thousands of shades of colours play together. With subtle changes in thread colours, the artworks come to life with an abundance of tones and surface rhythm.
The title of the exhibition, "Imagined Fabrics," refers to the textile artist's working process. Keskinen is fascinated by unpredictability. Combining different-coloured threads according to a chosen system brings forth captivating colour combinations that are challenging to name or envision in advance.
