The textile and the film share gestures and processes. The movement of the hands that spin the fiber evokes the movement of the hands that handle the film material. They also share the primitive presence of female labor in both areas: spinners and editors, who aligned, cut and assembled the textile and film material. A historical fabric that has been spun over the years.
Self-portrait based on "Portrait of a lady spinning" (Maerten van Heemskerck)
