Abstract: Drawing on first-hand experiences from weaving workshops, interviews, collages and excerpts from raw fieldnotes recorded during a fieldwork on the island of Guam in the north Pacific, this contribution reflects on the physical practice of weaving and how each material embodies a unique place in CHamoru society. Author Alba Ferrándiz Gaudens moves beyond the definition of place as merely a physical space, instead considering how enskillment and embodiment function as places of cultural production: spaces for full-body engagement in practice and the fostering of community.
