Invisible Traces
installation
tutors: Studio Ossidiana
Intrigued by one of the artefacts found in the area of Flevoland, Netherlands, a fragment of a lavish carpet,
I used a weaving technique to translate part of the local history.

My position was to look at the archaeological objects
as storytellers and understand their perspective by translating them into space. Making the invisible layer, which carries the heritage of this region, visible again.
The installation becomes a time machine, which slowly builds reversed topography through its threads, a new perspective of the ship. Brackish water, dripping and crystallising slowly on the threads and the canvas underneath, links two spatial positions.
Textile, in its different forms, can embody the elusiveness
of forgotten stories, becoming a translation of its materiality, topography and structure.
