12:00 – Inauguration & Meet the Artist, L.Christeseva

We are honoured to invite you to the inauguration of the exhibition “Roses of Ties” by Swedish artist L.Christeseva. The exhibition celebrates International Women’s Day and will be on view through 30 April.
Roses of Ties is a participatory project bringing together women from across Europe whose lives have been shaped by war, migration, and militarization, in dialogue with Swedish women rooted in a feminist and peace-oriented context.
In Zagreb, L.Christeseva has invited fashion students, led by Assistant Professor Ivana Mrčela and Associate Professor Lea Popinjac from the Department of Textile and Clothing Design at the University of Zagreb Faculty of Textile Technology, to contribute to the exhibition. Their work reflects on femininity as an active force in peacebuilding, cultural exchange, and social renewal in a world marked by conflict and displacement.
We look forward to welcoming you!
The exhibition runs from 7 March to 30 April and includes a series of Swedish Fika and Roses of Ties workshops with the artist during the opening on 7 March. Feel free to bring your favourite tie – one that is meaningful to you. Workshop Schedule (7 March, 2026): 14:00–15:00; 15:00–16:00; 16:00–17:00
