  • Indian artist Monika Correa started weaving in 1962. She commissioned a carpenter to build a customised loom and has experimented with this practice ever since. Hear the artist talk about the thinking behind her artwork Original Sin (1972) and the effects that the process of weaving can produce.
    Monika Correa was interviewed by Tate Curator, International Art, Devika Singh via video call in March 2021. To ensure everyone's safety, this film was produced remotely and a full COVID-19 risk assessment took place ahead of filming.

    😘 Your weaves have a very architectural dialogue with me , it’s texture landscape and my own self ‘ मन’ reflected in them . Like in the first sin . There are evenings and meshes of the afternoon shadows . I like to sit in front of them let them lead me to a space they wish to ! They are are amazing ! 💐

    Yes this is even more experimental than Anni Albers’ works. It would be good to see her works exhibited at Tate.

    The weaving/fabrication program at Kent State Univ. really pushes weaving as art; the students do some amazing work, and the Profs' works are pretty spectacular too.

    Can we have a little discussion about that? Is this arts & crafts or is it art for YOU? Me personal : My tendency goes more to the a&c. Have a lovely day folks 🤘🏻

      for me personally, i’ve never understood the distinction between arts & crafts and fine art. i think they’re one in the same. once i thought about it more, i realized that this distinction came from societal sexism since ‘arts & crafts’ are usually done by women. but yeah, i think what we call arts and crafts and fine art are really one in the same. i equally respect both! a lot of work, technique, and time go into both.
