Traveling Poncho
2011
Textile, Leather

Centerpiece of Social Fabric Earth Return (2021) and exhibited at Social Fabric Earth Return (2021).
Social Fabric Earth Return is a travel diary of a handwoven poncho with the keynote of interconnectedness, published by Bom Dia Boa Tarde Boa Noite. Over a period of ten years, the poncho was sent out as a textile avatar to meet various artists around the world, always handed over in person. The interactions with the poncho, through photography and correspondence, sketch out the journey and tell a story of togetherness in a world that has changed drastically over those years. The project inspires the questions: What is the most essential element of what you do, and how can it be shared in a significant way?
