Textile designer, researcher and a reporter, passionate about ethnographic\u00a0textiles, living craft practices and artisans around the world.<\/h3>\n<p>A lifelong passion for textiles, design, crafts and traditional ethnographic know-how and sustainability, materialized by a MFA at the Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure des Arts D\u00e9coratifs (ENSAD) in Paris in 2006,\u00a0a Fulbright scholarship in 2014-2015 at the Fashion Institute of Technology, New York in the Masters program Fashion and Textile Studies: History, Theory and Museum Practices, and a PhD at the Royal College of Art of London started in 2016. A specific interest for designers and craftspeople, secular textile traditions surviving the modern world, contemporary practices reviving these know-how.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Since 2010, the launch of an inspiration blog of inspiration\u00a0\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.magalianb.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ici et Ailleurs<\/a>\u00a0(Here &amp; Elsewhere) <\/em>to share my visual diary (travel, design, art, creative crew&#8230;) and some numerous collaborations and contributions to online and paper magazines such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulette-magazine.com\/fr\/\" target=\"_blank\">Paulette Magazine<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/culture360.asef.org\" target=\"_blank\">Culture 360 <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.maisondexceptions.com\" target=\"_blank\">Maison d&#8217;Exceptions<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>A collection of fabrics from different travels constantly expanding.<\/li>\n<li>In 2012-2013, an active participation to the tv show\u00a0\u00d4 F\u00e9minin on\u00a0France \u00d4 channel as a co-hostess and journalist expert on the Southeast Asian region. Broadcast of two stories about golden silk in Cambodia and the revival of textile craftsmanship in\u00a0Vietnamese tribes.<\/li>\n<li>Since\u00a02012, consulting in\u00a0textile design on artisanal projects mainly in Asia, to promote local techniques and develop contemporary fashion and home products respectful of these cultural heritages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Then came this crazy idea: highlighting the different textile know-how and crafts from all over the world, to document the beauty and variety of fabrics and processes, and hear the voices of artisans and designers.
