Collective Writings
"All true language is incomprehensible, like the chatter of a beggars’ teeth" - Antonin Artaud
Collective writings in between the crafter and its tools. Preference and space is given to the articulation, rather than to focus on comprehension.
“Using the dying technique Ikat, I would give the coded input of those certain blank spots in the yarn that I wrapped during the dying process. The machine would then use this yarn to knit her fabric, and just with the tensioning of my hand and her mechanics, and the structure of her knit, the blank spots were turned into symbols that could speak about the process much better than I can with words. It was the most direct dialogue; I was giving her a code; she was processing it with her body. What came out in the end showed traces of both of us.”
