Momento Lace: Dis-Closed is a textile captured in time, a canvas of uncontrolled self-expression. The series Momento Lace comes from the moment of creation and the visual characteristics of “lace” and dream catchers. Textile art pieces are made out of scraps of textiles and with special technique once again put in a stable form.
Momento Lace: Dis-Closed is a series of textile art pieces under one common name excesctus. Each textile piece is made out of scraps of textiles and with special technique once again put in a stable form. Put in hoops and placed in a space, they create their own universe of textile art , surrounded with light and space. The developed technique of using assembled threads and creating a new textile piece is an opportunity of self-expression in a different and less controlled way. As a part of an ongoing research art project exsectus (2016), Momento Lace series was created.
