In a world of mass manufacturing and consumption, I cherish the value of handmade items and I have turned to knitting which is a timeless skill passed on from my mother. Knitting is about connecting loops and it is experiential. Somehow I feel it resembles the connections between people. I would like to explore this through the re-invention and re-contextualization of knitting.
(The text is provided by the student)活在商品世界,感慨手藝一點一點失去。想起母親曾經編織的毛衣,好像已經不合時宜。我卻喜歡編織只靠一線而成的特性,自我連繫而成毛衣,它讓我想起人與人的連繫。透過這種想法,我希望用新的情境與角度去探索編織。
