Natalia Tan is the founder of Natalia Weaves and a participatory artist whose work explores weaving as a practice of reflection, creativity and community. Through communal craft, she creates welcoming spaces where people can slow down, work with their hands and reconnect with themselves without the pressure of performance or conversation.
Her workshops and public art projects have brought weaving into libraries, eldercare settings and cultural institutions, demonstrating how craft can become a gentle catalyst for belonging and shared experience. Every session invites participants to discover the quiet rhythms that emerge through making together.
Natalia believes wellbeing grows through attention. She sees craft as a way of cultivating presence, celebrating individuality and creating meaningful connection through shared creative practice.
