With Dress & Define we want to explore the boundaries of creative opportunities with hanging textiles. We asked Master of textile art, Statira Jazayeri to interpret each Almedahls weave to let the fabrics express themselves in images.
In the words of Statira describing her craft: “The relationship between surface and depth, darkness, and reflection of light as well as the intensity of folding that occurs in a draped fabric fascinates me. I am looking for answers to what different compositions can represent or in what way they can touch. Every fold carries energy, it is charged with power and excitement. In the drape there is rhythm, direction, tension, and interaction.”
