Witness by Karen Rubado

$3,500
Wool, Found Feathers
W650 x H1220 mm

Thoughts from the artist: Witness is a narrative work based on an encounter while visiting the island bird sanctuary of Tiritiri Matangi. It echoes the path taken, the unresolved mystery, and the interloper. 

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.
