Flashes of Consciousness refers to flashes of brain activity in which the mind becomes aware of possible solutions or changes in attitude when faced with different problems throughout life.
These problems or new situations are often accompanied by an overflow of sensations and emotions that make it difficult to move forward. On the one hand, these “flashes” allow emotions and feelings to be managed in an orderly and coherent way. On the other, they make it possible either to resolve the problem or to accept, as well as possible, a new life situation that has arisen and prevents us from moving forward.
Its title evokes awareness emerging from among the thousands of connected and intertwined thoughts we experience throughout our days, as part of the extraordinary network of the brain’s functioning that distinguishes and shapes each person.
White: Harmony and Serenity
Orange: Empathy and Passion
Greens: Connection and Transformation
Browns: Wisdom and Trust
Black/greys: Perseverance and Pragmatism.
The piece is woven using two different shuttles: a boat shuttle and a rug shuttle. The materials are wool and a natural-fibre cord, hand-spun from 19 strands of different fibres, including linen, wool, silk, alpaca, mohair and cotton in a range of colours. The cord is gently twisted by hand so that each colour and fibre remains visible. Each cut section of cord represents one of those moments of awareness —a flash— distinct from the thousands of thoughts we may have throughout the day.
Once removed from the loom, the piece is mounted on a wooden stretcher frame, hand-covered with cotton fabric.
Dimensions: 70 × 100 × 4 cm (width × height × depth).
