In Patched Up, Petter Hellsing tracks the global city's rhythms and shapes – the constant shifts between chaos and order.
An entry into the city, as a body or a thought, the city as materialized ornamentation. |
Textiles, which have long been Hellsing's primary media, have their own place within city life. Temporary constructions that make flexible spaces.
Protection from insight, a lookout point, in layer upon layer around our bodies. |
| In the woven, the twining, in the interweaving of threads, he looks to follow the city's and his own lives, in the embracing, in the temporary, to something greater - beyond the narrative. |
