embroidery with cotton thread, Astino thread on linen Canvas.
Belongs to the "Astino Cycle" (*see more in the profile):
The embroidered looms are the final part of the study on the Astino monastery that has the idea of the loom as its main thread; understood as the final element of a process of knowledge based on nature. Here the loom comes to life autonomously, the warp and weft follow their own paths departing from each other, turning into an abstract composition.
Linen, among the first seeds grown by monks in this valley, was chosen for the base of the embroidery. Some of the threads used were dyed with the dust of the Astino land, to remind us that that land will always be present and ready to provide us with new knowledge.
