Weave technicians
Two warps, one tangled and messy after being dyed, hanging above one that is neat and tidy, stretched on a table loom.
“The installation shows a warp before and after a technician's intervention. Being a technician is about 'problem solving' most of the time; whether it involves fixing mistakes, trying to find 'ways to' or demonstrating a variety of techniques. The idea behind this piece is to show visually the journey a student takes starting from a muddle-up, undecided, not-working object (the warp) to a final, sorted, neat and working object (the warp stretched on a loom).”
