Trust
Artwork size: 153 x 125 cm
Materials: Recycled polypropylene, cotton
string, found wood
Trust is created with individual strands of PK’s
“color-blocked” tali to create the center motif, but
as each is handmade by different weavers, no two
are exactly the same. This creates a visual static
that can occur between people if trust is frayed.
The weaving technique is also a play on “trust” as
the weavers “locked” only the bottom strand, with
the remaining strands hovering over and under the
warp threads – symbolizing the fragile balance of
relationship. In “Trust” – as in life – if one strand is
broken, it can all fall apart.
