MUSEU TÊXTIL - BOOK I - CONTRASTING SHAPES
The 23 (twenty-three) artworks of textile and mixed art selected for the exhibition, "Contrasting Shapes", and idealized by artists from 10 (ten) nationalities with distinct cultures not only elucidate the very spontaneity of the human being in manipulating the elements of the world, but, once again, makes us reflect on the need to build our desires and rethink everything around us. Whether through narratives of real or fictional scenes, when offered by the artist, the artistic object comes to life by being observed and manipulated creatively in our imaginary.

Instituído em 2020, o Museu Têxtil, se propõe a promover o intercâmbio
cultural e artístico entre o Brasil e outros países, para mostrar acima de tudo a
universalidade dos conceitos e expressões de arte presentes nas pesquisas,
técnicas e estilos que são apresentados por Artistas Têxteis, de Técnicas Mistas e
Artes Dimensionais.
Nossa proposta é divulgar o trabalho de artistas que utilizam
estratégias têxteis como suporte em suas criações. Além disso, pretendemos
fomentar um ambiente de pesquisa, produção e exposição dessa manifestação
cultural e forma de expressão artística.
Sendo a arte um casamento entre o real e o utópico, o Museu Têxtil
intenciona expor, por meio da enfática retórica autorreferencial de artistas de
diferentes culturas, os alicerces que estruturam suas pesquisas artísticas
investigando o significado representacional pelo qual o artista usa os sentidos e
fala aos sentidos para aludir um mundo físico tangível a qual nos estabelecemos.
Established in 2020, the Museu Têxtil aims to promote cultural and
artistic exchange between Brazil and other nations, to show primarly the
universality of concepts and expressions of art present in research, techniques and
styles that are presented by Textile Artists, Mixed Techniques and Dimensional Arts.
Our focus is to promote the work of artists who use textile strategies as
support in their creations. In addition, our intention is to foster an environment of
research, production and exhibition of this cultural manifestation and form of
artistic expression.
Since art is a marriage between the real and the utopian, the Museu
Têxtil seeks to exhibit, through the emphatic self-referential rhetoric of artists from
different cultures and background, the foundations that structure their artistic
research by investigating the representative meaning by which the artist uses the
senses and refers to the senses of alluding a tangible physical world to which we
are established.

A imaginação do artista sempre estará presente na forma e na
técnica que este utiliza para organizar tudo aquilo que compõe uma obra de
arte. Seja na metodologia abordada para manipular os elementos do seu lúdico
envolvimento com o mundo, como na poética com que este criativamente
edifica o objeto fruto de seu desejo; o artista busca um diálogo puro e direto com
o desconhecido. Este pode ser traduzido como a identidade idealizada
resultante de sua própria reflexão sobre tudo aquilo que o cerca, fazendo-se
existir entre o incompreensível coletivo que o mesmo narra como sendo real e
fictício.
A exibição, “Contrastes de Forma”, não apenas, discursa sobre esta
dinâmica, mas também nos ajuda a entender que em plena tentativa do artista
de se tornar independente de toda a relação com as narrativas de sua realidade
visual e de empenhar-se em compreender que a arte não tem nada a ver com a
imitação do mundo, mas que a obra de arte pretende nos ajudar a conviver
pacificamente com este; surge então, desta experiência, a forma. Revestimento
que envolve uma matéria invisível preenchida de ideologias e sentimentos
ocultos, impulso que advém da experimentação e observação de própria
autoria.
Este artefato que nasce da fusão do que o artista observa e daquilo
que experiencia, carrega consigo o conteúdo que em sua essência é na
verdade a fuga da incompreensível realidade, inventada pelo homem para
escapar de sua particular necessidade de coexistir, expandindo assim nossa
percepção do que somos e do mundo que a nós foi emprestado.
Os artistas têxteis presentes nesta exposição, por consequência,
apresentam ao observador subjetivamente que para toda a interpretação que a
forma venha a ter, teremos que vivenciar o que estiver implícito em seu
significado e que este envoltório que materializa a leitura que temos de nossa
própria identidade em objeto de arte é, na verdade, uma abordagem
alternativa para tudo aquilo que representa o homem e seu mundo, que
convencionamos designar por recortes imagéticos com base em nossas
escolhas, constituídos por um conjunto de conhecimentos que em comum já
possuíam comunicação.
Os 23 (vinte e três) trabalhos de arte têxtil e mista selecionados para a
exibição, “Contrastes de Forma”, e idealizados por artistas de 10 (dez)
nacionalidades com culturas distintas elucidam, não somente, a própria
espontaneidade do ser humano em manipular os elementos do mundo, porém,
mais uma vez, faz-nos refletir sobre a necessidade de edificarmos nossos desejos
e de repensarmos sobre tudo aquilo que nos cerca. Seja através de narrativas de
cenas reais ou fictícias, quando oferecido pelo artista, o objeto artístico ganha
vida ao ser observado e manipulado criativamente em nosso imaginário.

The artist's imagination will always be present in the form and technique
they use to organize everything that makes up a work of art. Be it in the
methodology approached to manipulate the elements of their playful
involvement with the world, or in the poetics in which it creatively builds the object
fruit of their desire; the artist seeks a pure and direct dialogue with the unknown.
This can be translated as the idealized identity resulting from the artist's own
reflection on all that surrounds them, making them exist between the collective
incomprehensible that the same narrates as being real and fictitious.
The exhibition, "Contrasting Shapes", not only discusses this dynamic, but
also helps us to understand that in the artist's attempt to become independent of
all the relationship with the narratives of their visual reality and to commit to
understand that art has nothing to do with imitating the world, but that the work of
art intends to help us live peacefully with it; then, from this experience, form
emerges. A layer that involves an invisible matter filled with hidden ideologies and
feelings, an impulse that comes from experimentation and observation of one's
own authorship.
This artifact that is born from the fusion of what the artist observes and
what they experience, carries with it the content that in its essence is actually the
escape from the incomprehensible reality, invented by man to escape from his
particular need to coexist, thus expanding our perception of who we are and of
the world that has been lent to us.
The textile artists present in this exhibition, therefore, subjectively present
to the observer that for any interpretation that the form may have, we will have to
experience what is implicit in their meaning and that this envelopment that
materializes the reading we have of our own identity as an art object is, in fact, an
alternative approach to everything that represents man and his world, which we
conventionally designate as imagetic cutouts based on our choices, consisting of
common knowledge communication.
The 23 (twenty-three) works of textile and mixed art selected for the
exhibition, "Contrasting Shapes", and idealized by artists from 10 (ten) nationalities
with distinct cultures not only elucidate the very spontaneity of the human being
in manipulating the elements of the world, but, once again, makes us reflect on
the need to build our desires and rethink everything around us. Whether through
narratives of real or fictional scenes, when offered by the artist, the artistic object
comes to life by being creatively observed and manipulated in our imaginary.

Originally a painter, I diversified my artistic
practice after completing a master's degree
in ethnology. Attracted by anthropological
debates, art and crafts, I directed
my ideas and work towards mixed media,
textiles and anthropology. After training in
embroidery, plumasserie and pattern
making, textiles became my main means
of expression, working mainly with embroidery
(embroidery with crochet of Luneville),
linocut and paint. I love colour and
define my work as a "maximalist". This saturation
of colours and information is my
characteristic style allowing me to connect
with the viewer and inspire contemplation.
This excess of colour represents
the complexity of human psychology; perceived,
interpretable and interpreted in
various ways. I seek to catch the eye, to
challenge and generate questions. I want
to create links between the past and the
present, between various subjects and
techniques, and between disciplines. My
work interrogates and defines the expression
of our collective and individual imagination,
our interactions, our intentions, our
perceptions, our identities and our emotions.
It is my representation of the world
with its varied palette of human emotions,
moving and intertwined with each other.

Kristina Penhoet
Otis College of Art & Design, Los Angeles,
CA, USA and Southern California Institute
of Architecture, Los Angeles, CA, USA
Born in 1967 in Portland, OR, USA - Works in
Washington, DC, USA
Kristina began working with fiber and textiles
as a small child, learning to crochet
and sew during her summer visits to her
grandparent’s farm on a remote island in
the Pacific Northwest. She continued to
pursue her love of making during quiet
moments while earning a degree in biology
and working in healthcare. When she
realized she needed to commit to a more
creative life, Kristina attended Otis College
of Art and Design in Los Angeles, concentrating
on sculpture and environmental
design, and began working in modelmaking,
film production and stage design.
Inspired by the production design work
and a continued interest in form and
space, she pursued a graduate degree in
architecture. After 10 years of architectural
practice, she rekindled her love of making
and rediscovered fiber as a medium.
Originally from Oregon, Kristina currently
resides in Washington, DC with her family
and a naughty dog that wants to be

Preta Wolzak
Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam the
Netherlands
Born in 1967, Raamsdonksveer, Netherlands
– Works in Amsterdam the Netherlands
Preta Wolzak studies at the Gerrit Rietveld
Academy in Amsterdam, Free Programme
/ Monumental Design, from 1986
to 1991. In the following years she primarily
works on commissioned projects: she designs
and builds furniture, designs exhibitions,
works as a producer and stylist for
photographers, designs private and corporate
interiors, and makes illustrations for
websites and book covers. Preta starts
making jewelry under the name Fortblink
in 2008, and around that time she also
starts working as an autonomous visual
artist. From 2013 onwards her free work
becomes increasingly important. In that
year she opens her own creative store Old
Fort On Dun at the Oudeschans in Amsterdam,
where she has her atelier, shows her
free work, sells her jewelry and presents
work by other artists and designers as well.
From 2014 on, Preta works exclusively on
her free work.
The acrobate stand for the foolish behaviour
of mankind, ruining its environment.
Man turns the world into one big amusement
park, which now even threatens to
spread out to the last untouched areas of
our planet: the North and South Pole.
A série de obras, feita a partir do verão de
2017, leva o espectador para um mundo
lindo e alegre de clareza, otimismo, ousadia
humana e espírito empreendedor. Vemos
acrobatas jovens e novos, usando a
natureza como plano de fundo por sua
excelência em qualidade ou aparência.
Preta Wolzak os transforma em heróis, carregados
de beleza e glamour, executados
em materiais ricos. Mas também há
um lado negro em sua história. Abaixo da
superfície, Preta Wolzak retrata sua indignação
com a forma como as pessoas tratam
o globo. O turismo e a extração de
matérias-primas formam nuvens escuras
sobre as áreas ainda praticamente intocadas,
que já parecem abalados pelas
consequências das alterações climáticas.
A acrobata representa o comportamento
tolo da humanidade, arruinando seu meio
ambiente. O homem transforma o mundo
em um grande parque de diversões, que
agora ameaça até se espalhar até as últimas
áreas intocadas de nosso planeta: o
Pólo Norte e o Pólo Sul.
About the series:
This series of works, made from summer
2017, takes the viewer ta a beautiful,
cheerful world of clarity, optimism, human
daring and entrepreneurial spirit. We see
fresh, young acrobats, using nature as a
backdrop for their excellence in quality or
appearance. Preta Wolzak turns them into
heroes, loaded with beauty and glamour,
executed in rich materials. But there is also
a dark side to her story. Below the surface,
Preta Wolzak depicts her outrage at the
way people treat the globe. Tourism and
the extraction of raw materials form dark
clouds over the still largely untouched areas,
which already seem to be shaken by
the consequences of climate change.

My artwork is engaged to nature and its
recurrent patterns and rhythms. I use them
as a base in order to create my compositions.
I´m attracted to repetitive sequences,
combining separate elements to form
a cohesive group. It isn’t a strict conceptual
idea of repetition on itself; my work
doesn’t seek to impose an order or structure,
but rather to enjoy the rhythm of repetition.
Silk and paper have the softness
and malleability that I need in order to
create my desired forms, shapes and even
shadows. The process to carry out my work
is thorough and methodical. I choose as
materials small and simple elements; such
as feathers made out of paper and silk
and then organized in a precise order. This
allows me to build a group of entities that
end up being the final artwork. My goal is
to create projects that inspire, connect
and touch people emotionally, taking the
viewer on a journey through different
ethereal, botanical and peaceful landscapes.

Carolina Martins Vaz
ISCTE - Instituto Universitário de Lisboa, Lisboa,
Portugal
Nasceu em 1989 em Lisboa, Portugal - Trabalha
em Lisboa, PT
Desde cedo, Carolina conviveu de perto
com artistas e com o mundo das artes, o
que em criança lhe incutiu a vontade de
experimentar variados tipos de trabalhos
manuais e lhe permitiu explorar inúmeros
materiais, texturas e, principalmente, cores.
Assim, não é de estranhar que o seu
percurso profissional tenha enveredado
também pelo mundo artístico. Com um
Mestrado em Gestão Cultural e um curso
profissional em Produção de Espectáculos,
Carolina manteve esse contacto com
as Artes e com a Cultura, organizando
eventos culturais. Paralelamente, e inspirada
por esse meio fascinante, a sua vontade
de criar foi crescendo e começou a
explorar as artes têxteis, onde foi autodidata
no macramé. Desde então, decidiu
aprender e aprofundar outras técnicas
que lhe permitissem criar peças diferentes
e coser novos pontos ao seu estilo abstracto,
como a tapeçaria e o bordado. O
seu método de criação flui de forma livre
e intuitiva, onde o desenho e o bordado
acontecem de forma orgânica na tela.

Trabalha em São Paulo, Brasil
Sou artista plástico há mais de 20 anos,
sempre utilizei o tecido e a costura como
forma de expressão. Desenvolvo muitos
trabalhos utilizando uma diversidade de
técnicas têxteis experimentais e materiais
com importante carga simbólica, seja visualmente
ou materialmente. Principalmente,
utilizo de materiais cotidianos que
possam ser encontrados no lar, têxteis ou
não, mas que sirvam para o propósito do
trabalho. Com estes, elaboro painéis, pinturas
"moles", objetos, esculturas e instalações.
Já participei de muitas exposições
coletivas e individuais em galerias e museus
de São Paulo e no exterior. E também
venho dividindo minhas experiências
através de workshops e cursos de arte têxtil
e criatividade.

L’Ecole des Arts de la Sorbonne, Paris,
France, Ecole Duperré, Paris, France, ESA-
AT (Ecole Supérieure d’Arts Appliqués et
du Textile), Roubaix, France
Born in 1993 in London, UK - Works in Paris,
France
Sarah Krespin was born in 1993 in London.
At present she is working in Paris after having
graduated with an MA in Fine Arts in
2019 from L’Ecole des Arts de la Sorbonne
(Sorbonne School of art). Her studies at
Duperré and at La Sorbonne lead her to
focus on the possibilities offered by textile
materials interrogating various ways to express
uncertainty in art. Constantly questioning
the idea of a finished piece, she
perceives her sculptures as organic and
changing objects. During an exhibition the
spectator faces a temporarily fixed state
of a sculpture modified at each installation.
In her work gesture is predominant. It
initiates an outcome which is not preconceived.
How can we give form to our uncertainties
? One can find answers in Sarah
Krespin’s woven sculptures or in her
stitched papier mâché work.

Laura del Valle Ramírez García
Universidad Nacional de San Juan, San
Juan, Argentina
Nacida en 1987 en San Juan, Argentina -
Vive en San Juan, Argentina
Laura nació y creció en un hogar humilde
de la Ciudad de San Juan. Su madre le
enseño a coser, tejer y bordar, era modista
y tenía un taller en su casa. Rodeada
de telas e hilos, sintió mucho interés desde
muy pequeña por la costura y a medida
que el tiempo pasaba, comenzó a colaborar
en algunas tareas del taller. Desde
niña pintaba y dibujaba mucho, también
estudiaba danza, sus padres la motivaron
durante toda su infancia, en su desarrollo
creativo, que le permitió obtener en varias
oportunidades, premios en concursos de
dibujo. En la universidad, estudia la carrera
de Profesor de artes visuales, mientras
avanzaba con sus estudios, trabajaba como
profesora de danza; simultáneamente
comenzó a pintar cuadros, obteniendo
reconocimientos en salones de pintura
provinciales. Durante sus estúdios universitarios,
cursa una materia dedicada al Arte
Textil, que despierta en ella, un gran interés
y admiración por el trabajo con las
fibras. Luego del nacimiento de su segundo
hijo, decide destinar más tiempo a la
maternidad, lo que no le impide dedicarse
desde su hogar, a diseñar y participar
en trabajos de vestuario para la Fiesta Nacional
del Sol, la celebración popular más
grande de su provincia. Comienza a profundizar
la investigación sobre la historia
del bordado y sus manifestaciones en las
diferentes culturas del mundo. Laura siente
que el ritmo de su vida cambia de forma
rotunda, había comenzado a vivir en
un pequeño departamento, en donde
pasa mucho tiempo del día; su espíritu
inquieto va dando paso a la creación de
entornos imaginarios por medio de puntos
y puntadas que construyen formas inspiradas
en elementos de la naturaleza que se
entrelazan con retratos.
En el año 2018, concluye su primer cuadro
textil y obtiene un premio en el Salón de
Artes Visuales denominado “Impulsarte”,
en la Provincia de San Juan; al año siguiente
obtiene el Primer Premio en el mismo
salón. Laura cuenta que además de bordar,
le encanta y valora plenamente en
su carrera artística, el encuentro con la
gente que concurre a las muestras donde
participa con sus obras. Textualmente la
artista comenta: “En las exposiciones que
he participado, muchas personas que allí
concurren, al ver mis obras, recuerdan y
me cuentan historias que emocionan, de
sus abuelas, madres o tías que bordaban,
tejían o cosían, son relatos que conmueven
mis sentidos, que aprecio y guardo
con mucho respeto. También disfruto intercambiar
experiencias y conocimientos
con artistas de mi tierra y de otros países”.
Las obras textiles que realiza Laura Ramírez,
son bordados que por su tamaño y
detalle, requieren mucha dedicación y
tiempo; a simple vista, los espectadores
suelen pensar que son pinturas, pero al
acercarse, pueden apreciar los hilos de
cada puntada que conforma el bordado.
Durante el año 2020, por sus méritos fue
convocada para participar en numerosas
muestras virtuales internacionales, realizadas
de esta forma, por la crisis sanitaria
que envuelve a todo el planeta. También
a partir del 2020, forma parte de exposiciones
virtuales y presenciales junto al colectivo
de artistas sanjuaninos “18 Mundos”.
En la actualidad, continua desarrollando
su estilo personal de bordado contemporáneo,
que incorpora técnicas de
tejido y costura, trabajo que realiza desde
su taller, ubicado en aquel mágico y pequeño
departamento donde comenzó su
camino en el arte.

Julie Sarloutte
Beaux Arts de Paris, France
Born in 1989, France - Works in: Rosny sous
Bois, France
Julie Sarloutte is a French artist and graduate
of the National School of Fine Arts Paris.
Using string, she creates pieces so detailed,
that at first glance they appear to
be composed of paint strokes, rather than
of individual stitches. She reflects the fascination
of the screen. Taking her inspiration
from technology- TV shows, films and
screens covered by the media. These are
most often the subjects represented by
her embroideries. Transposing these into
embroidery makes an unexpected contrast
between the medium and the subject,
with this abstraction of the relationship
between violence and archaic
“feminine” craft. She takes the time to embroider
what usually happens in the fraction
of a second.

Using waste paper and plastic, she converts
it to a flat pliable textile. Trauth hand
molds and flame sculpts each piece, miniature
original works in their own right—
both freestanding pieces and wall-hung
reliefs take shape in her hands to form her
unique assemblages.
Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, United States of
America - Works in Miami, Florida, United
States of America
Star Trauth is a an experimental fiber artist
that often creates new processes to complete
the vision of her pieces. Her art has
been in over fifty exhibitions in under five
years; including Miami Art Week, Yoko
Ono’s Arising, and The Florence Biennale.
She obtained her BFA at university in Ohio,
USA but thinks one should never stop
learning. Trauth states, “If I see an interesting
topic I’ll study it, a cool class I’ll take it.
If I want to continue to push my art I must
also push myself. I’ll never stop looking for
ways to expand my mind.” Star Trauth’s art
has been described as tribal and innovative,
art you want to touch but shouldn’t.
Her process melds ancient techniques
with signature innovations. She prefers to
use vintage, found, and new fibers in
unison to form her creations. Star prefers to
work immersed in music to keep the purity
of her vision. Trauth is meticulous when it
comes to sensory engagement. She will
often limit sight, sound, even diet, while
engaging her pieces. Each piece is inspired
by a personal experience. Her art
practice draws on the ideas of abstraction,
minimalism, Dadaism, the concept of
ikigai, anti-consumerism, and a dedication
to legacy.

ângulo inusitado em suas imagens e viagens
que foca em experiências vivenciadas
e na cultura de cada região visitada.
Numa configuração familiar eminentemente
feminina, os trabalhos manuais
sempre perpassaram as relações, conviveu
entre agulhas e linhas desde a mais
tenra infância. Com a mãe aprendeu a
desenrolar novelos e lidar com as agulhas,
com a avó o amor pelas flores e pela natureza.
Foi na fotografia bordada que encontrou
o ponto de intersecção! O enredo
que liga as linhas de construção pessoal
ao acervo que construiu. Bordando
sobre as imagens reproduz a essência
interna criando um novo matiz, baseado
em culturas diferentes e referências históricas.
