Uramia Die
Developed through the residency, this project explores what it might mean to weave away from home through an engagement with back-strap loom weaving. The process became an inquiry into how much the body remembers, rather than what memory alone
can recall.
The works presented extend this enquiry across language, text, and translation. ‘Uramia Die’ positions translation as an active participant in the making of meaning. ‘Eat-a-ban’ reflects on the politics of presentation, using the tools of presentation to question how stories are constructed and who gets to tell them. ‘Nie Pie Penuo’ reimagines the book as a textile form, where the subject, surface, and material become inseparable.
Together, these works consider weaving as more than a textile practice. They approach weaving as a way of thinking across memory, language, translation, and material, where each work becomes another gesture of weaving place, experience, and meaning together.
