TEXTILES

The thought that fabric captures and holds “memory” excites my imagination. / The thought that an old piece of clothing is implanted with stories of the wearer. / The thought that a piece of stitched table linen holds within it the secrets of a household. / I take the phrase “the fabric of our lives” quite literally.
​I am exploring the real and imagined emotional evidence left behind on garments and household linens and wondering about the stories of the people who have come into contact with them over the years. I assume that even chance contacts can leave their mark and wonder if we could see these, “what would they reveal?”

Meredith Woolnough

Meredith Woolnough is a visual artist from Newcastle NSW. Her elegant embroidered traceries capture the power, beauty and fragility of nature in knotted embroidery threads. The work explores the sculptural possibilities of a unique embroidery technique that utilises a domestic sewing machine and a base fabric that dissolves in water. By repeatedly stitching threads into dense structures Meredith creates intricate and complex openwork compositions that are then carefully suspended in space with pins, causing them to cast delicate shadows.  Her latest work explores themes of environmental degradation and interconnectedness drawing inspiration from the natural forms and structures found in various leaf and coral structures.

Moneyless

Moneyless creates the next level of what the Spanish La Pluma Eléctri*kstreet art crew calls Spider Tags: Two and three dimensional abstract installations made of cotton threads combined with geometrically paintings. The results are often impressing, especially when the installations look like wafting through the air…

My ambiguous universe wrought from our turbulent modern existence is focused on art, commerce, technology, and pop culture, and by now consists of numerous thematic blocks. In a subversive tongue-in-cheek manner, I mix together the absurd and the bizarre, careful observations of everyday life and an interest in humanity, to create these different phases of my work. In my works there is often a lot of blood. Blood, in this exaggerated and bizarre manner, stands in contrast to the material, wool. Due to the technique of crocheting – all my works are produced by myself in handicraft – and the selection of the subject-matter, my works seem harmless at first sight. But if you take a closer look, you will discover biting irony and a strong dose of nastiness. One of our basic human rights is the right to life and physical integrity, but still we encounter violence every day. In my works I deal with questions regarding the way our society deals with the various forms of violence and the growing acceptance of brutality. My work employs black humour to shine a torch into our own psychological chasms. And just as in the largely unexplored abysses of the oceans, these are depths within which the bizarre and the wondrous is without prejudice allied to the beautiful and the terrible.

Sarah Illenberger

The Berlin-based artist Sarah Illenberger has developed a very unique and strong visual language, conveying even the most abstract and complex content into vivid, humorous, and concise visual forms without ever forcing a meaning on them. For her meticulously-crafted work—including commissions for Vanity Fair, Time, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Wallpaper*, and Nike—she mostly uses simple materials and household items such as paper, food, textiles, and wood.
