ENTANGLED MATTERS is a body of work developed through Awassi wool, a sheep breed native to the Levant and shaped by thousands of years of domestication. Through felting, spinning, braiding, dyeing, and embroidery, the fiber is transformed into textile works that retain traces of animal body, hand, and process.
The work considers felt as a material produced through compression and entanglement: loose fibers become a single surface through friction, moisture, and pressure. This physical binding becomes a way of examining the porous relations between human and animal bodies, and the histories carried within materials shaped through prolonged coexistence.
