Weave made with the complex technique double-cloth or Kurti. Year : 2014
In this video my teacher Paulina Garcia Condori, gives me the loom so I can start to weaving it. “Hello world” is a term used in programming languages to verify that the system is working. The video suggests the analogy between a loom working with the traditional weaving process known as Kurti or Double Cloth, with a highly organized complex system in full operation.
Some weaves of this series were also worked in collaboration with the master weaver Paulina García Condori de Iturata – Sacaca, North Potosí, Bolivia.
