More about the exhibition.

What exists between my artistic method and crafting?
What might this in-between look like?
Starting from textile tradition where the instructions derive from the checked paper, this explores how the checked paper can serve as a foundation for other types of instructions. The exhibition showcases an ongoing project aimed at finding new ways for people to engage in making. Creating. The space one can create for themselves where the hands lead. It is a space where thought does not initiate action. The instructions and the hands decide.
I can't, suddenly someone says. This someone might be me. Or you.
