broken by Karen Rubado
Thoughts from the artist: using fine mercerised cotton, I wove broken on my loom until every warp thread broke. The result is a delicate display of disintigration.
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.
