> DESCRIPTION
In her new project, Movana has received numbers of books from her beloved friends as the knitting material. This is different from her previous approach, in which she used to create works of art, the 'body container' sculptures, by deconstructing and reconstructing shredded pieces from old magazines. Magazines are often considered as a kind of quick read that are easily disposable. Books are rather different, as they contain the owner's memories and the papers themselves retain a unique smell as time goes by. Through the knitting process, Movana has generated communication with her friends' memories. She has also injected vitality into the shredded papers, so that they have become stories of their own. The newly constructed 'books' will be sewn on canvas; it is an incorporation of the old and new ways of comprehending the books. |
