DescriptionEmbroidered StoryboardsDuring the process of working on live-performances, short films or exhibitions I continuously do embroideries.
They later are shown as framed images depict sketches of various stage designs, sceneries, theatrical effects, light situations, places of performers, stage ideas, architectural situations, colour decisions etc…
They are on one hand reflecting the transfer of performance and theatrical work into the exhibition space and on the other hands a counter part to the ephemerality of live-performances and film.
Text: Katrina Daschner
“These embroidered images (called “Silver glitter”, “Light Curve”, “Bertha”, “Las Vegas”, “Projection”, “Stage Position” …) illustrate, in a laconic, minimalistic and almost mathematically accurate manner, the precise geometry of glamour. They debunk the illusory nature of burlesque devices, while offering an artistic form for the presentation of performance practices which goes beyond the standard method of documenting ‘after the fact’. With her embroidered stage architectures, Daschner redefines textiles “to encompass the (patriarchal) order of handicraft, of arts and
senses”.
