The Calligraphic Sculptures
2023
Štúrovo, Slovakia
As a former writer, one of the reason why I am fascinated by weaving is that the processes is like another way to write line after line. When the audience sees my work, it’s also like another way to read, wordlessly.
I found a type of yarn that is pretty close to calligraphic lines, which had inspired me to start a series of soft sculptures. I used the traditional basketry weaving technique and then followed the particularity of the yarn, like writing and painting with ink, to give this series a contemporary appearance and organic textures. From my point of view, they are like 3D calligraphy or ink wash paintings, which are also sketches of internal monologue at the moment.
