A thinking that allows everyday rituals to finally carve the space. Works with objects that others have written off; sees the importance of fabrics and prefers the mixing of both industrial building materials and handcrafted ones for each project. Sees the potential of freeing space for indoor gardens and climbing plants. https://elinatseliagkou.com/Furniture Wed, 27 Feb 2019 19:31:16 +0000 Elina Tseliagkou https://elinatseliagkou.com/Furniture Furniture Objects surround actions; furniture evoke the human body, streched or curved around it. https://elinatseliagkou.com/Unsung-Weavers Wed, 27 Feb 2019 19:25:00 +0000 Elina Tseliagkou https://elinatseliagkou.com/Unsung-Weavers Unsung Weavers Unsung Weavers is a series of one-off coats hand-crafted out of woollen blankets salvaged from Mediterranean villages. Each piece is unique; a relic in itself, echoing the long forgotten rituals of rural production while reviving the ancient craft of weaving. Every coat is entirely hand-stitched from a unique pattern based on utilitarian apparel archetypes, such as the shepherd’s overcoat and monastic jacket. Through establishing different production-reproduction analogies and material-imaterial processes in parallel to existing clothing manufacturing conditions, Unsung Weavers is introducing the handcrafted garment as a possible ideological tool, pointing to a subtle renewal of lifestyle. www.unsungweavers.com https://elinatseliagkou.com/Weavings Sun, 24 Feb 2019 15:57:54 +0000 Elina Tseliagkou https://elinatseliagkou.com/Weavings Weavings A 2-dimensional reading of social space and surrounding geometries.
