Within the frame of the MaasLab, I stayed with the Maas river during one month. Everyday, I observed the ripples of the water, trying to interpret her language that reveals variations in the strength of the wind, in the colours of the sky and in the height of the riverbed. Weaving became a gesture to extend the relationship with the Maas. The meditative action of passing threads repeatedly allows me to explore the memories of the time spent alongside the river. The transposition of photographic images into a woven pattern generates a loss of detail from pixels to weaving points, and translate liquid movement into textile matter.
