Description
London-based artist Ethan Caflisch has established a certain level of comfort in continuing his well known textile series. However, with that comfort of knowing what mistakes to avoid, comes the urge to expand – to start a new piece and intentionally creating chaos in order to fix it. To find it’s subtle and carefully thought-out alchemy. No matter how comfortable you are with a process, a composition or a skill, the discovery of something new is always the most fulfilling.
The series can be described in the artists own words:a revisitation to a place i know and have shaped but isnt how i left it. the punctures from top to bottom bond and hide. the initial carelessness from sprinting is what now requires surgery. there is still a view through the glass, or maybe its open, who knows anymore. the horizontal rarely changes at a distance, its the vertical that disrupts; although the force applied to make it work messes with that line a bit.
the things that keep me going now are the importance of the material, and saving it, preserving it, presenting it
