CROWNS




The Crowns are made from a single blade of grass, woven several times.
The knots are forming a circle, a mathematical structure where all the fragile connections of different souls depict the unity of inner and outer worlds.
The last knot, tied to the first one, testify a circular movement inside the crown so that the end is always a new beginning. 
These works would like to raise questions about the border between nature and culture, animate and inanimate matter, or between pure subjects and mere objects. The crowns are the result of the necessity of a revision and decolonization, not just of the obsolete understanding of animism, but also of the modern imaginaion of which it is an expression.
