Reisestickerei - Embroidery of a journey



Reisestickerei
Embroderies of a Journey are embroideries that are done during a trip. The gesture is identical to the act of fixing notes through writing or sketching, yet here, the tool used is the embroidery.

The Embroderies of a Journey correspond to a movement: to travel the distance between point A and point B. And along the way, to collect and record impressions and embroider observations.

During a journey the body is in constant movement, the mind is unrestricted and the hand is free. The fleeting moments belong to the journey. Experiences are fugitive, they produce wonder and astonishment.
As the eye captures arbitrarily, the hand fixes through embroidery. There is a transformation of a movement into a form of writing.
