The fragile thread exhibition is the second part of a project that started with our acquaintance with the traditional textiles of Kythira. The first exhibition was intended to highlight the history of the local textile tradition and highlight a faded legacy and a forgotten art. Emerging from old chests, locked attics and public dustbins where handmade textiles and parts of damaged tools were found, the previous exhibition presented a collection of various local textiles, anonymous creations of the dedication of labor and craftsmanship of the women of Kythera. The new exhibition is based on our attempt to reconsider the relationship between past and present, new and old, traditional and contemporary, presenting the works of five artists whose life and practice are connected to the island. The works selected for the current exhibition take their inspiration from the world of weaving and weaving and keep us connected to the fine thread of our own cultural heritage. The connection between the two parts of the work, past and present, is the evolving loom, a sculpture, which began with a woven line of hand-made and traditionally dyed permanent wool and continues to unfold throughout the exhibition with the collective weaving by the visitors and those dealing with it. The exhibition was edited by Valery Bolotin, Maria Schina, and Masha Zusman.Artists participate:PAT KAUFMAN \/ SUSAN MOXLEY \/ DIMITRIS HATZANTONAKIS \/ MARIA SCHINA \/ MASHA ZUSMAN<\/b><\/p> <\/div><\/div>\n\n
