teNir (to hoLd) - PREMIERE!

SYNOPSIS

Because that is what it is all about:
hold the thread, hold a thread, hold up, hold between, hold in the middle,
to hold up,
to hold on no matter what happens,
but to hold.
And for that,
hold a thread, hold the thread.
The thread as an extension of the body.
The thread as an object of thought,
an incorporated thought.
The woven fabric becomes a new space of thought, a possible space in which the
body must find support, interstices, openings.
The canvas is woven inside - outside.
It becomes an extension or another dimension of the thinking body.
But here the woven fabric takes into account the space around, the living around.
It is externalized, it becomes a support for reflection.
The thread unfolds, the ball of yarn empties.
The thread goes from one point to another, forms a knot, an angle, joins another
thread then another one, and a web is drawn, takes shape inside the cube.
The canvas occupies the cube, fills it, clutters it to slowly reveal inside a free space
in which the body will find place and curl up, a possible imprint.
