Hi Laura, so the first question would be about textile art. Tell us, how did you manage to create your first untraditional textile works? The technique is quite traditional, but it seems that you managed to look at it differently?
Constructional silicon is used quite variously not only in everyday life, but often constructional silicon is used by sculptors as an additional material to create a wanted form or to precisely repeat it. In my first light installations “No flue nor feathers”, after long experiments and searches for the best material to represent the idea, I used constructional silicon as the main material for the object and it let me precisely repeat the hen form, surface texture of the object. Silicon helped to create the maximum realism effect that strengthened the viewer’s reaction to the created installation, and “livened up” the idea.
