About the artwork

“I want to have agency over the grid. I am living in a grid and controlled by grid structures on social, cultural and technological realms. As an artist what agency do I have over the grid and how do I represent it? I want to answer these questions through material metaphors. This series of topological drawings are made on felt. Felt as a medium makes me have a fluid control over its surface and geometry. The elasticity and flexibility of the felt distorts the grid drawn over it and provides new geometries. We don’t need to deny the grid we have to find ways to bend the grid.”
