A meditation on line, pattern and allowing events to unfold unhindered. Four broken strings reflect the nature of weaving and tension. The path left after a string breaks is a visual memory of the event.
Karen Rubado deploys her loom to do, to undo, and to make-do, both materially and to trouble and loosen our attachments to and associations with things. A strong element that runs throughout her works is that they are unresolved, and by being situated between being done and undone, woven and unwoven there is a sense that we are part of a fleeting moment in the fabric of time.
