DescriptionTender two is the first work in the ongoing series of textiles woven in pure silver yarn. The shiny panels are the size of two people. Tender two documents the time of its production, from October 2021 to January 2022. The lines on the surface are the days of the weaving inscribed in the piece. Like a slow printer, the texture is created line by line. The result is a visualization of three months’ work. As soon as silver come in contact with the air, oxidization starts, and eventually, these two panels will turn black. Tender two is a reflection on the fleeting nature of time and love.[[missing key: detailactions.not-available-label]]
