Juror: Kim Abeles - Artists's Statement
- My work is a combination of the immediate and the ancient. I apply modern materials to the ancient processes of basketry and weaving. Much of my work is woven on a loom. I like to reinterpret 17th and 18th century patterns for household textiles. By applying post-modern materials to these everyday designs, I take a new look at old traditions.
I feel part of a 20,000 year continuation of the distant past as I reinterpret these ancient art forms. There is a deep satisfaction and a quiet excitement in having this connection with a thousand generations of men and women who have done what I do, all over the world.
My materials are cast off, surplus, or waste: copper wire from the recycle yard; audio cassette tapes that even the thrift store wanted to throw away; yarns and materials of unknown purpose that were donated to the fiber arts program at California State University Northridge; which in turn were given freely to anyone who could and would use them.
The materials could not have existed either physically or conceptually until the modern age. Physically, they are by products of industrialization. Conceptually, the notions of disposability, one-time-use, surplus, and waste are also modern inventions.
