2023, Loulé
Alfaia Galeria
An ongoing re-shaping, reconfiguring, re-dyeing, ripping and sewing back together again, fermenting, dissolving, melting, digesting.
‘Unfurling’ is a piece the artists has exhibited a many times and it is never the same. The fabrics are re-dyed with whatever plants and pigments are in season, jars filled with whatever needs fermenting, new pieces of dry scoby, soda made of whatever fruit is going, bread and butter made fresh to share. It’s a table with two seats, an invitation to share time with creatures other than ourselves. It sits seemingly still until the exhibition ends but in fact, is brimming with micro-activity, jars bubbling, colours fading. Someone stirs the soda every other day.
