Draž 2024/2025 Nit zgodovine

Zgodovina niti ali nit zgodovine? Neskončna nit je v središču naše zgodbe, a kaj počnemo z njo, določa nit povsem druge vrste. Tista, ki povezuje matere in hčere, pradede in komaj rojene, eno živo bitje z drugim in zemljo z nebom. Sledi teh vezi zaslutimo v jerbasih, čipkah, vezeninah, koših ... Vezi med nami so najdražje, kar premoremo, zato smo iz njih spletli novo zgodbo. Navdih so bili nosilci spominov, predmeti Slovenskega etnografskega muzeja, ki smo jih prenesli v sodobno pleteno teksturo. Tradicijo smo zvozlali z umetno inteligenco in ustvarili fantazijske podobe, sinteze različnih tehnik in materialov. Nastale so slike klekljanih čipk iz leskovih vej, košar iz zlatih niti, ki smo jih spletli v zamolkla, mehka in nežna oblačila za zapletanje v vsakič svež vsakdan. Njih, ki jih bodo nosili, bodo vezala na varno zavetje preteklosti in držala korak v iskanju tistega, kar je v življenju najdražje.

Thread of History 2024/2025

History of threads or a thread of history? An endless thread is at the heart of our story, but what we do with it defines a completely different kind of thread. One that connects mothers and daughters, great-grandfathers and the newly born, one living being with another, and the earth with the sky. We sense the traces of these bonds in bundles, laces, embroideries, baskets... The ties among us are the most precious thing we possess, so we have woven a new story from them. Our inspiration came from the memory carriers, items from the Slovene Ethnographic Museum, which we have translated into a contemporary woven texture. We unraveled tradition with artificial intelligence and created fantastical images, syntheses of different techniques and materials. The result is pictures of bobbin laces made from hazel branches, baskets from golden threads, woven into subdued, soft, and delicate garments for entangling in a fresh everyday. Those who will wear them will be bound to the safe haven of the past and keep pace in the search for what is most precious in life.
