How to weave a book

On show 15. 2.- 16. 3.2025 at Arti et Aimicitiae

 ‘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, a weaving was created about contemporary sculpture and 20th century industrial steel constructions and about the perpetual, material nature and meanings of weaving.

The intelligence of the hand #colour#texture#Iceland

Research into the perception of colour  #Weeflab

Two warps for my second residency at Textílmiðstöð - fine linnen and pre-mordanted wool. No design, no failures, just new, unexpected forms. 

Slow process, play and serendipity. Shibori weaving + Glit technique_Icelandic wool + dusty, vintage linnen_finely woven traditional pattern + shimmering, sagging threads.

The hand is the interface, the weaver is the protagonist of our time, especially in the experience of time itself.
