TELA BORDADA 2019 | INSTALLATION, PERFORMANCE, VIDEO AND FABRIC

A group of women embroider a piece of fabric. Each one of them tells her story while working. The fabric, in turn, has a story of its own. Obtained from a morgue in São Paulo, it is one of the remains of the kind of death and daily violence that interest the artist in her work. The embroidery adds a new layer to the fabric, integrated with the existing marks. A video document of the process and the narratives, as well as the cloth worked on by the embroiderers, remain on display after the performance ends.
