Project Description

CREATION/SUBSTANCE

She sews with gentle gestures. The repetitive, mesmerizing sound of the sewing machine resonates, as the needle penetrates the material. Soon we enter her surreal world : the nude fabric and the skin fuse and the substances become alive…

Associating the female shapes and the human flesh as visual references with the act of sewing, Creation/Substance constitues fascinating space of interaction and entangledness of material, object und human being. The created hybrid made out of abstract images of skin, textures of fabric and real body is a female figure that stands for the women of the Bauhaus, who were predominantly limited to the textile arts.
