•WEBEREI• PRESENTS MAISON WEBEREI IN DANCE MACABRE

WOVEN FLYER FOR AN EXHIBITION IN BERLIN

“Maison Weberei in Dance Macabre” was an installation of 13 Woven Tapestries depicting a modern take of the artistic genre of the allegory of the Late Middle Ages on the universality of death: no matter one's station in life, the Dance Macabre unites all.

The over-sized woven art pieces (ca. 320 by 320cm) show different archetypes of our modern day to day life sashayed to their demise by a troupe of dancing skeletons, the personification of death.

The thirteen tapestries where brought to life by Simón Sepúlvedas naive graphical style were then interpreted by Noël Saavedra as woven objects and concocted in Germany.

Conceived as one, large ongoing image, the following archetypes find death through dance:

THE ARTIST

THE MASCULINITY

THE IMMIGRANT

THE NATURE

THE POLITICS

THE MOTHER

THE DEALER

THE WEAVER

THE LAUGHS

THE EGO

THE UNIVERSE

THE TIME

THE UNFINISHED SYMPATHIES
