מְחַשֶּׁבֶת בַּדִּים | Thinking Through Cloth

Benyamini Center, Tel Aviv 2025

Textiles is a cultural field based on materials and actions that are connected by the maker to form a fiber structure into a practical object or an object that is artistic or symbolic. From the beginning of human culture until today, materials undergo actions that are associated with textiles such as spinning, weaving, knotting, felting and following this weaving, knitting, embroidering, beading, dying, draping or sewing as well as unraveling and tearing. From ancient combinations of materials to cognition, from a braid of fibers to global communication cables, we find these actions, materials and textiles also as metaphors used in society such as “spin a tale” and “social fabric”.

In the exhibition there are eight participants, designers with a label for wearable textiles, as well as designers who are researchers of textiles as a structure, object or canvas for an image.

מתוך טקסט התערוכה:

בין לבין | 2024-2025

רשת הדפס בנויה ומצוירת בעבודת יד, הדפס רשת, גרביים בסריגה תעשייתית , חוטי כותנה, לייקרה

מעין גוטפלד היא מעצבת טקסטיל מתמחה בדפוס רשת. בשנים האחרונות עוסקת בעיקר בעיצוב הדפס על גרביים עשויות מכותנה, בייצור מקומי. בעבודה ״בין לבין״ חוקרת גוטפלד את הגרב כצורה ובו בזמן גם כמצע או קנבס להדפס. הדימוי המודפס נובע מפירוק הגרביים ופריסתן לצורה ומכאן ליצירת דימוי המודפס על הגרב עצמה. כך נוצרה שרשרת מעגלית בין חפץ הטקסטיל השלם לצורתו המפורקת, ובין אותה צורה כדימוי מודפס על אותה גרב פרוסה. כך מוצגת גם רשת ההדפסה כאובייקט הכרחי בעבודה.

סדנת הדפס ניידת לנייר וגרביים - שבוע העיצוב ירושלים 2022

A mobile print studio for paper & socks - Jerusalem Design Week 2022

A study conducted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2001, even before the smartphone’s came into our lives, found that the mean amount of time visitors spent looking at great works of art was 27.2 seconds.

We’re all struggling with “paying attention” , the visual noise and daily nuisance surrounding us are constant.

Our day-to-day is a lack of wandering, of moments of tardiness and daydreaming.

A Two wheeled mobile print studio will wander around Hansen's house design week’s exhibits.

Everyday would result a screen and a print, based on one work.

The screen would emulate the Present and the print would Echo it, they’ll forever capture a thought, a conversation, raw materials and structure.

The Viewers would follow the print, that hopefully would allow them to stall a few more seconds in front of the piece, and maybe it would inspire them to wander aimlessly around other artworks and slow down and drift for a while.

סימני קיץ | SUMMER MARKS

In the peek of our Telavivian summer , we built a cart with the bare necessities of screen printing,

With a Mobile Print Workshop we wander around painter’s studios in the south of the city, creating a small temporary assembly line, each day in a different place.

With Locality in our minds, 12 stops, 12 Telavivian painters leave their mark and impression on locally made textiles:

Fuad’s light canvas button down shirts, Shamir’s pillow cases and Mustafa’s socks, all made by family owned businesses that produce Textile in a dying local industry with its glory days behind it.

The act, the meeting, the talks, the repetition of the printed image , are all generating a printed log of a time and a place and the people in it- a printed log of another wet and steaming hot Telavivian summer.
