Textiled Becomings

Textiled Becomings’ negotiates, the depth of connectivity and interdependence of systems, persons and the environment. My aim is to accentuate, through materials and forms , the co-dependency between human and the world as reciprocal relationships that are essential for the continual existence of both.

Further more, the process of making the work ‘from scratch’, demonstrated in the videos, enables me to perform my embodiment. The painstaking process of implanting seed by seed, rolling the yarns and weaving, literally, enacts the connection of body and thought so that the work of art stops being only a translation of, or comment on, cultural or social values, and becomes a viewfinder for the audience to be aware of the movements necessary to develop oneself within the world. The installation emphasises the performativity of the making together with the performativity of the living artwork, to become a sensory experience for the viewers.
