The Exhibition Overview_ ECO-TEXTILE ART: Craft meets Art
"I am applying carpets and rugs... made out of plastic bags... plastic bags, that I cut in long strips and made threads out of... I used different weaving and knitting techniques." Nargiz Galib Andersen
ECO-TEXTILE ART is a virtual exhibition showing artist Nargiz Galib Andersen's take on textile arts. The selected pieces that conform the exhibition were made out of unusual materials such as plastic bags and its resulting threads. The knitting process becomes an exploration of colour, shapes and techniques resulting in the communion of craft and art. The resulting artistic tension questions old and new concepts in arts: recycling and beauty, process vs. result, technique and expression.
