Installation & Shared Movement, Art Residency in Italy, August 2019
Residency Ad Ognuno la Sua P'Arte 6 in Villatalla organized by Tadlachance Art Association
The
project was a collective, interactive, and outgoing art installation,
inviting all the visitors to participate to share movements and to
create a piece that involve their own prints besides natural elements. All the pieces were suspended on the beautiful tree at the center of the
village.
Installation involving 100 textile sculptures (spindles 17x3x3 in. each)
Variable size
The installation is a collective artwork in which 50 women were invited to put their own hand prints on two white
textile sculptures using red paint.
Inspired by the shapes of tree seed pods (like
the Kapok), chrysalises, distaffs, and spindles I have created a textile
sculpture in a contemporary shape. Distaff and spindle are old instruments used
for the spinning of natural fibers.
They symbolize exclusively
feminine work and are a symbol of life and time. The motif of handprints has
been present in my work for several years, as both a subject and as a tool for
painting. Embracing the uniqueness of each individual, handprints are both
individual and universal symbols for humanity and demonstrate memories of touch
and our collective unconscious.
