Continuing with my artist take-over of @fiberartnow I’d like to highlight a recent source of inspiration: the Comca’ac Basket Weavers of Sonora’s Socaaix and Axöll Iham regions. Here @valentinatorrescomcaac demonstrates the process of weaving a Comca’ac plate or “Hasaj”, while telling us a little bit about the origins of this millenarian tradition. #artisttakingoverfan #comcaac #comcaacnation #comcaac #sonoranmajesty #puntachueca #sonorandesert #wheredesertmeetsthesea #marroquinruben #aweinspiring #inspiration #socaaix #canastas #hasaj #haat
Behind the scenes of a new piece

Process video
The video shows the process of submerging a knitted piece into a bath to add structure and texture to the artwork. The process creates a new impression for the piece but still preserves the knitted structure. The transformation of the knitted piece captivates me, a transformation where some parts stay intact and holes stay open whilst other parts change completely and some holes close.
Knitting runs in my family and I’ve knitted since before I could read. Through trial and error I have developed various methods of processing the materials. I experiment everyday to expand the realm of possibilities I see in knitted sculptures.

Inside Out #1, 2024 300 x 100 x 100 Handknitted textile
This is a recent artwork that I created for the exhibition “Sommerudstillingen, Masnedø Fort” in Denmark. The theme of the exhibition is “the body”
The piece consist of only knitted fabrics, and the shape is completely dictated by the flow of the knitted forms.
Magdalena Abakanowicz is one my greatest sources of inspiration in my artistic process. I love her artworks and was fortunate enough to see her exhibit at Tate last year.

@sookkyung_arts This installation "Blooming", initiated at the start of the Pandemic, was inspired by temple Buddha statues and the symbolism of lotus flowers discovered during my research, I spent weeks selecting paper materials that would best embody the project, experimenting with each to understand their unique characteristics before making purchases. Every shape was crafted by hand, despite numerous setbacks. However, through continuous refinement and learning about the materials, I successfully completed the installation.
"Nine series of Blooming"
Dimensions variable
Medium: Mulberry paper, thread, cutting pape, origami paper, hanji paper, wired string & bamboo
Year: 2021-2023
