About
Gathering is pleased to present To Be You, Whoever You Are, a solo exhibition of new textile sculpture by Korean artist Soojin Kang opening Thursday 11 May, 6-8pm. Using the ritualistic actions of weaving, knotting, winding and unwinding to explore the sculptural possibilities of textiles, Kang transubstantiates raw materials into structures that retain unmistakeable traces of their biotic origins. In the artist’s hands, ‘thread is warm.’ Textiles become vascular, acting as capillaries generating the vital force of the strange organisms that she brings into being using hand-dyed linen, jute and silk.
