Elodie Antoine invents hybrid objects that blend elements from very different, even contradictory, worlds: a lipstick shaped like a concrete wick, lace-covered nuclear power plants, embroidered bacilli cultures, felt pipes, or factories made of quilted fabrics. In her installations, a single element may sometimes proliferate and colonize the space, as with textile mushrooms in a forest in Zwalm, or even the moldings of a ceiling. These ordinarily inanimate elements are given a life of their own, contaminating space like a fungus or mold, disrupting established order and provoking feelings of curiosity, attraction or repulsion.
The "Extinction Lace" project is a monumental lacework entirely hand-embroidered on aviary netting during her residency at neimënster.
Good to know
Two workshops were organized to allow volunteers to participate in creating this 4 x 8 m textile artwork.
The net is used as a support for the embroidery and represents different regional bird species now threatened with extinction.
The lace technique highlights ancestral know-how.
