Yota Andriakaina’s "Wefts", freed of the charge of tradition, redefine the use of the yarn.
They mix the present with the past of art history through the works of Velázquez and Whistler. In her compositions, the idea of wandering is connected to the concept of time.
This will be a new story about an old place-Lagos, Nigeria. About home, and returning to it for the first time. Once familiar, that ritual of returning becomes like waist beads one rubs in the intimacy of the shower, reminders of the self that survives all the change that life brings; the 'you' that remains even as you slip in and out of accents, norms and systems.
Τα «υφαντά» της Γιώτας Ανδριάκαινα απαλλαγμένα από την φόρτιση της παράδοσης επαναπροσδιορίζουν τη χρήση του νήματος.
Αναμιγνύουν το παρόν με το παρελθόν της ιστορίας της τέχνης μέσα από έργα του Βελάσκεθ και του Ουίστλερ. Στις συνθέσεις που δημιουργεί, συνδέει την περιπλάνηση με την έννοια του χρόνου.
