Press Release

Thread is a flexible word. A signifier in a complicated tangle of signified. Straddling definitions like ‘a filament, a group of filaments twisted together’, it neatly side-steps into ‘a continuing element’, and leaps boldly through time and space to form ‘a series of electronic messages following a single topic or in response to a single message.’

Flexible and limber, this etymological mash-up spans both the material and immaterial and has at its core the idea of connection: a restless search, the ever-wandering line.

The artists in //thread are conceptually and formally connected by this wandering line. From connections woven through society to experimental fabric use, they bring objects and concepts into dialogue: forging connections through a layering of concepts, materials and references.
