Weaving has long served as a powerful metaphor for connection and destiny, from the Greek Fates to medieval tapestries and modern literature.
In this session, we explore how threads and patterns in art and myth reflect the interwoven nature of human experience.
Through selected examples from ancient Mesopotamia, Greek mythology, and later artistic traditions, we will consider how artists and storytellers have engaged with ideas of time, continuity, and change – and how these themes resonate across cultures.

‘The Culture Club‘ is a series for everyone curious about art, culture, and creativity — and who would like to share their thoughts and reflections in English within a relaxed and supportive atmosphere.
Each gathering will focus on a theme and begin with a short presentation illustrated by artworks, stories, and cultural examples. Together we will explore ideas that connect different cultures and historical periods — from ancient myths and artefacts to literature, as well as modern art, music, and film. Through these images and stories, we will uncover the threads of connection that bind human life, and discover how art and myth can inspire fresh perspectives on our own experiences.
No previous knowledge is required. ‘The Culture Club‘ offers a welcoming space for dialogue, discovery, and creative reflection.
