Renewal v. Repair
2018 - 2020 Xerox transfer & embroidery on muslin Curious about the proliferation of contemporary repair movements, such as Platform21, Repair Cafes, and TomofHolland's Visible Mending Programme, I chose to learn traditional methods of darning and overlay them onto an archive of images of urban renewal. These became meditations on the urge toward repair across disciplines; scale and material differences between textile, architecture, and planning; and the promises and problems of visual representation. A selection of this work has been published as Jeremy Lee Wolin, "Darning over Renewal," in Repair: Sustainable Design Futures, ed. Markus Berger and Kate Irvin, (New York: Routledge, 2022), 76-81. |
