About this artwork
This artwork is a unique exploration of texture and structure, combining the traditional craft of knitting with modern abstract design. The piece is composed of carefully arranged hsnd-knitted threads in white, black, red, and blue, creating a dynamic interplay between the soft, woven elements and the rigid grid they form. The black square, painted over the white knitted background, adds a contrasting solid element, while the red patterns, printed using acrylic paints and a knitted piece, introduce a vibrant focal point. The use of a stretched white knitted background on canvas ties together the various textures, creating a cohesive yet multi-layered visual experience. The inspiration for this work comes from the desire to merge the tactile qualities of textile art with the conceptual frameworks of abstract and minimalist art. The choice of medium allows for an exploration of depth and contrast, both visually and physically, inviting viewers to not only see but also feel the intricate relationships between the different elements. This piece aims to evoke a sense of balance and tension, where the softness of the knitted threads meets the firmness of the painted and printed areas, challenging the viewer to explore the boundaries between craft and fine art.
