The cover of DAMN° magazine's Winter 2022 issue, No. 80, for its Cultural Calendar section. It carries a close-up photograph of a handwoven textile made from denim and colorful rag strips, part of the installation for Weaving Roots, Claudia Hill and Jared Gradinger's collaborative exhibition at the Bärenzwinger in Berlin.

An announcement text for the exhibition Weaving Roots at the Bärenzwinger in Berlin, pairing choreographer and gardener Jared Gradinger with artist Claudia Hill. It describes Hill bringing a 125-year-old tapestry loom to the site, presented less as a production tool than as a social sculpture and a site for communication, alongside Gradinger's participatory garden.

Continuation of the Weaving Roots feature, giving the exhibition's dates, 25 March to 5 June 2022, and describing seven public Co-Weaving Sessions Claudia Hill held at the Bärenzwinger, inviting visitors to weave alongside her using plant-dyed silk and other textiles from her collection. Two installation photographs by Juan Saez show woven, patchwork-hung textile columns and looms inside the venue.
