THE FIBRES OF BAKU’ A PORTRAIT OF THE CITY

in-residence at YARAT Contemporary Art Organisation as part of collaboration with FARE, Milan, Kichik QalArt Gallery, Baku

The title of the exhibition describes the approach I have used in Baku: looking for local fibres, including wool, closely linked to the cultural origins and identity of Azerbaijan. As my ideas developed and evolved during my time there, so these aerial sculptures too took shape in my imagination and then in reality. ‘The Fibres of Baku’ is an exploratory portrait that honours my personal cultural experience and the people I have met in that town.
