Needlework artist: Beatriz Braga

[Paul Ferguson]

"ALCHEMIA - The Design of Time, a 2x2 meter art installation, is inspired by how time can act as a designer through a series of alchemical processes and how this can contribute to a new understanding of what it means to design. By looking at processes like oxidisation, friction, sedimentation, Beatriz rethinks her own creative practice by including tarnished and worn materials. Whilst navigating the universe of natural abstractions, the artist reflects on how she can take time as a creator, allowing this reflection to lead her to innovative materials and processes and breaching the barriers of how embroidery can be conceived."
