3rd International Contest Lace in Gorizia
From 12 to 31 May 2012
TRANSPARENCIES - A LACE TO CONFINE THE EMPTY SPACE
I LISTEN TO THE SEA BREATHING
Inspiration for the given theme „Transparencies – A lace to confine the empty space“ I have found in the sea that is nostalgically drawn into the world of lace.
By playing with the sea motifs and composition of colours I wanted to show my vision of the theme.
I have made a self-portrait.
I have always felt that my hands can do more, they speak more than my face. I have simply let my golden hands do the work, to speak on my behalf, to convey my creative thoughts, the idea of moving within the lace, to show how I feel things.
In the lace world everything is transparent. Everything that surrounds me is reflected within me, the sea depicts me perfectly in the world of lace.
Listening to the shell inspires my imagination. I listen to the sea breathing. I give way to my emotions. I listen to myself.
Blue wide space, sea depth, silence and light and powerful movements confine my time of learning how to make lace. Goldfish are my golden ideas that live within me and try to reach the surface. New ideas „float“, just like my sailboats, they look for new challenges to broaden my creative horizons for making lace.
I made the lace in two layers:
1) Waves, sailboats, little fish, sea-horses and corals stand symbolize moving of my thoughts, my ideas. Red corals stand symbolizes the value of lace made with a lot of love.
2) Net made with half stitch with two shades of blue symbolizes the power of sea and beauty of lace's clarity.
When making lace, I used several stitches: cloth stitch, halfstitch and double stitch with inside and outside pins, a plait with 3 pairs with a single picot, a plait with 4 pairs, leaves and 40 pairs of bobbins.
I made the lace, 35x31 cm, with metallic Madeira thread no. 15 and 30 and I put the same into plexiglas size 40 x 35 cm.
SLUŠAM KAKO MORE DIŠE
Inspiraciju na zadanu temu "Prozirnost - Čipka koja zatvara prostor" potražila sam u moru koje nostalgično vučem u svijet čipke.
Igrom morskih motiva i kompozicijom boja željela sam pokazati kako ja vidim zadanu temu.
Izradila sam autoportret.
Uvijek sam osjećala da moje ruke mogu više, one govore više nego moje lice. Jednostavno, dopustila sam da moje zlatne ruke rade, da govore o meni, da prenesu moje kreativne misli, ideje movinga u čipki, da pokažu kako ja stvari osjećam.
U svijetu čipke sve je transparentno. Sve što me okružuje odraz je u meni, more me savršeno oslikava u svijetu čipke.
Slušanje školjke u meni potiče maštu. Slušam kako more diše. Prepuštam se emocijama. Slušam sebe.
Modro prostranstvo, morska dubina, tišina, i lagani i snažni pokreti kriju moje vrijeme učenja izrade čipke. Zlatne ribice su moje zlatne ideje koje žive u meni i pokušavaju isplivati na površinu. Nove ideje "plove", kao i moje jedrilice, traže nove izazove kako da proširim svoj prostor izrade čipke.
Čipku sam izradila u dva sloja:
1) Valovi, jedrilice, ribice, morski konjic i koralj prezentiraju moving mojih misli, ideja. Crveni koralj prezentira vrijednost čipke koja je izražena s puno ljubavi.
2) Mreža izrađena bodom half stitch s dvije nijanse plave boje simbolizira snagu mora i ljepotu prozračnosti čipke.
U izradi čipke koristila sam 40 pari baatića.
Čipku, 35x31 cm, izradila sam s metalic Madeira koncem br. 15 i 30 i istu sam stavila u plexiglas veličine 40x35 cm.
