My neuron - both core of my practice and a self portrait @artnetdlr Show curated by MASER ART #curatedshow#exhibition#textileart
My Neuron ArtNetdlr embodies the precarious, beautiful balance of the guardians I have scaffolded in my practice. As a cell, the neuron is a profound reflection of my identity, directly mirroring my relationship with my own body and the worlds we build. Living and navigating life and my world with nerve damage in my right hand constantly redefines my personal boundaries between the possible and the impossible. While this physical reality intricately shapes the very language of my expression, it never confines my occupation; it guides my creative practice without ever imposing limits.I sculpt complex forms informed by the functions of organs to explore human resilience, pushing the boundaries of traditional textile art. The sculpture has gone through various demanding iterations over the years, requiring a deep honing of skill and a maturity of expression that only comes with time and dedication. Meticulously hand-felted using a highly complex, entropic book-resist technique, the piece is crafted from a thoughtful combination of local white-breed wools and embellished with delicate silk, before being stuffed with pure wool. Through these meticulous, tactile processes, the work ultimately reclaims the hidden strength and beauty of our inner biology.The invitation from the ArtNetdlr Hands On call-out could bring only one work carrying the profound authenticity I look for in everything I create. The Neuron stands as the ultimate testament to this theme—a piece born from the physical limitations of my own right hand, yet brought to life through the absolute mastery of tactile, hand-felted craft.Curated by MASER ART .#curatedshow#exhibition#textileart
