Concept

Doro Seror and Susanne Thiemann weave and plait in Munich and in the country, one with old clothes, the other coming from the basket weaving workshop with recycled basket weaving materials. The Ukrainian Israeli Kathie Halfin weaves delicate objects and uses them in her performances. The US American Frid Branham weaves, knots, knits and crochets bizarre structures.

Women weave a teepee together from used textiles while telling stories.
The liveliness of telling and listening at once, crafting things by hand and the security in and around the teepee promotes cohesion, slows down and contrasts fast digital communication and isolated existence.

Invited to various festivals, I teach the technique of weaving without technical aids.  Direct recycling of old clothes makes a lot of sense!. As long as they can still beworn and find customers, this is the best solution. But because a maximum of 1% of used clothes is really recycled, I want everyone to recycle the worldwide surplus of clothes themselves.
Installation, accumulation of many weaving results
For the past year, I have woven T-shirts, clothing, fabrics and other used textile materials into mats, objects and tapestries. I now present the results of the work at the gallery Ambacher Contemporary.
They are arranged as a mobile installation in the room. The visitors can arange the soft objects themselves and thus "build" a new installation.

Exhibition | Gallery ARTikel 3
Munich

An exhibition on the transformation of ephemeral art into art objects.
Eine Ausstellung zur Transformation von ephemerer Kunst in objekthafte Kunst.

I transform relics into earlier performances and projects into artisanal products, that turn into objects of art because of their individual story. In doing so, I ask if and how the visitor, viewer and art consumer understands the true value of the object and would be also ready to pay.
