‘How to weave a book?’ addresses the mystery of visual memory and it’s taking shape in art. The installation is made with vintage material, re-purposed tools from weaving workshops, images from a personal archive . In collaboration with book designer Gersande Schellinx.
The installation at NDSM Fuse, in the hall of the vintage shipyard.
I weave on a CAD/CAM handloom with paper, horsehair, linnen and monofilament. A slow, manual process; carefully choosing material with specific expressiveness and searching for a form. The hand is the interface, the weaver is the protagonist of our time, especially in the experience of time itself.
