The project “Material Death” questions the idea that materials can become finished or dead. In our systems of production and disposal, materials are treated as if their life ends when we throw them away. However, matter never disappears. It continues to exist, circulate and affect bodies, ecologies and infrastructures.

In my practice I work with discarded materials and weave them together with hemp as warp. The weaving process becomes a slow way of staying with materials that have been declared finished. Instead of correcting or redeeming them, I try to remain with them and acknowledge their continued presence.

The work becomes a form of maintenance: a practice of attention and responsibility toward materials.

The project aims to transform how we perceive materials.

I am matter, you are matter, in time, in place.

A meditation on material, time and relation.
