Craigie Horsfield :: Jacquard tapestry based on pictures made at the Moscow Circus
during the Barcelona Conversation (1996).
One of the tapestries especially made for the exhibition
at the Museum van Hedendaagse Kunst Antwerpen M HKA, Antwerp,

2010.

‘Horsfield’s work has taken on a significantly new dimension with the
jacquard tapestries, which the artist has been making over the last
three years. Made in close cooperation with Flanders Tapestries, these
large-scale weavings have come to be an important part of the
regeneration of the thinking of tapestry in contemporary art and of a
renaissance of Flemish tapestry at large.’

“El
tiempo distante, el deseo y la destrucción de la memoria aíslan el
universo existente en cada una de las fotografías que componen esta
serie. En ellas, la decadencia, la liviandad de las emociones y el
candor de los apetitos configuran un marco onírico fruto de sueños
embelesados.”
