She vows
To make plastic art
Redefine plastic art
To make you love plastic art
To make you bow to her craft
Redefine craft
To weave
To weave your mind
To weave your mind into confusion
To drag you into the sacred without your consent
Weaving is the sacred, the tradition, the craft, and know-how passed from generations. It creates the cloth that protects, seduces and honors. Let it be the value, the commodity it has always been. Let how weaving functions, how it is installed within a space, how it fractures–let that be profane.
Hundreds of intersections and textile connections come together and sing, but the tune is not a hymn. I am not looking to create a spectacle for fun or frivolity. This is crafting a new fabric in a manner that is complicated, as complicated and fragile as our contemporary moments.
