Help me with my personal SUMI project in Spain
The experience
Seven years ago I created SUMI with Soul, my artisan project inspired by authentic Japanese kimonos and African textiles. I work from a peaceful family home with a garden and mountain views in a small Catalan village. I'm currently creating my first textile art exhibition and I'm looking for creative volunteers to help me sew by hand and machine while becoming part of this unique artistic journey.

I would love to be accompanied during the creative process by people who are proactive, who are used to working in creative processes, have needle skills and know how to sew on a sewing machine. We will share some household chores if necessary.
Activities & Shift
The 5-hour shifts are flexible, but they will depend on my schedule for working on the project, as besides the exhibition I am preparing other things related to the project.

I am mainly interested in people who have experience in textile art, who are proactive, motivated, and cheerful. It is necessary to have basic sewing knowledge for the position.
