Anda Klancic
B'Still Life, Contemporary Textile Wall Hanging by Anda Klancic

1996-2020

About the Item

B'Still Life, Anda Klancic, hand-controlled, machine-embroidered lace, cotton, synthetic, metal threads, 23" x 42", 1996-2020. "The tactility of the interweaving in the fibrous works I create, like their transparency and coloring, are subordinate to reflection, message and sensitivity, and to addressing the visual play of perception between the mimetic and the abstract. The variegated textile body implied by the title “Em-braced by Nature”, represents the decomposing, died-away leaf, shaped in a narrative, transparent human shell. This work tries to tell the history of clothes in which humans have used natural fibers to cover the body The work attempts to express, in a simple form, the relationship between humanity and nature. The sensitivity towards the ecological aspects of nature are crystallized in the body form which, created partially by burned-out lace, is patterned after a woman's body. Though a small work, it involves the contemplation on the meaning of garments and produced by beauty, and appeals to a precisely handcrafted network of yarns, that looks like natural veins. With fragility, this work tries to allude to some unknown fears of the 21st Century. The expressive power of clothes attempts to make us think about the importance of the natural environment and the life." -- Klancic
