"Weaving has become a main storytelling medium on memory, meaning and play. To making a sense of place, opportunities for renewal and self agency in the world."

Sibabalwe's practice and research focuses on creating new material systems through exploring novel ways in reviving, adapting, archiving and integrating the ancient craft of indigenous African weaving traditions and material dyeing methods into her own specialization in hand-woven cloth for sustainable textile producing futures. She creates abstract works for architecture or furniture, first with traditional materials, then with innovative materials such as metallic threads or waste and recycled yarns.
