Tessitura do tempo: A complexidade do crochê na representação da depressão e na ressignificação da arte têxtil

Abstract

The proposed thesis aims to delve into the artistic process of the installation Tessitura do Tempo, exploring its theoretical foundation and interrelations in the visual arts. Divided into three parts, it initially highlights the connection of the work with temporality and depression, supported by the book O tempo e o cão: a atualidade das depressões by Maria Rita Kehl. Subsequently, it addresses textile practice in the visual arts, emphasizing the historical relevance of weaving for women, with key references from Rozsika Parker and Ana Paula Cavalcanti Simioni. Contemporary artists Sonia Gomes, Ana Miguel, and Nathalia García are also mentioned as influences. Finally, the installation is detailed in text and images, narrating the creative process, assembly, challenges faced, and an analysis of the chosen colors in relation to the proposed symbolism.
