Agave is a handwoven tapestry created on a primitive loom in North Ibiza, composed entirely of materials sourced from the island. Cáñamo hemp yarn is interwoven with dried agave tequilana fibres foraged from the campo as well as bamboo found along the shoreline of Es Portixol.
The composition draws from the pared-back geometry of Ibicencan fincas - the openings in whitewashed limestone walls and shaded porticos that define their architecture. Rooted in a tradition of using only what is available, the work reflects a resourcefulness where material and place are inseparable.
A study in simplicity, Agave explores space, light, and structure through a restrained, tactile language.
H49cm × W31cm
Exhibited at Giri Café, Sant Joan, Ibiza, in collaboration with Inbetween Ibiza Gallery.
