Timewarp

There seems to be a shift from the tactile towards the visual experience. Digitalization speeds up processes. Visual information seems to be faster than tactile information. What will get priority in our experience of the world ? Weaving is a very slow process, even on a computerized loom.There is a tension between making this slow work and the fast world around me. I weave time.

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 of a result, 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.
