In You Are a Circle Expanded, I delve deeper into my ongoing exploration of weaving designs, not just as decorative symbols but as carriers of both emotional resonance and cultural memory. The sculptural installations evoke open-ended narratives and highlight the invisibility of systems, making abstract concepts like memory and information visible and tangible. This exhibition navigates the intricacies of weaving itself, peeling back layers to reveal the abstract textures within its structure, while simultaneously placing the viewer within a broader narrative—such as the intimate setting of a table—where the threads of daily life intersect with the symbolic, transforming the ordinary into something poetic.
