What we can't grasp

Description
Graziela Guardino’s work begins with the deconstruction of linen, reinterpreting the materiality of both painting and textile art. Instead of adding layers, she removes them, challenging traditional methods. Her exploration of color, form, material and composition turns weaving from a flat element into an architectural feature that pushes the boundaries of both medium and space. Her lines consistently test the limits between object and art. Guardino’s process reveals itself in the unraveling of the wefts, integrating mystical textile traditions with contemporary art, and rethinking the construction of art from ancient to modern times.
