1001 Knots

photographic print on acetate sheets, cotton thread, ink

As its title suggests, 1001 Knots is a large-scale carpet made of acetate sheets tied together with string. Presented in its rolled-up state, the work evokes notions of transfer and tradition alike. Recalling the practical act of packing its reference to journeys also bears the weight of nostalgia. Its transparent and fragile materiality questions concepts of stability within our ever faster-pacing globalized world.
