In Umbilical Cord I apply the technique on fabrics, using crochet pieces made by my late mother to create photograms. The crochets have been kept in a closet over the years, with no use in decorating the house.\nWith the cyanotype ready, I intervene in the pieces, using embroidery to create and recreate weaves on the drawings on the fabric, bringing to light pieces created by four hands. The pieces vary from 11 to 24 centimeters in diameter.\nI turned to my mother's productions this past year, in an attempt to deal with my own memories and reconnect with her and with myself in this period of my life. Embroidery was a way to reconnect with this fundamental female figure in my life. Ironic that I always found crochet and embroidery \u201cgirl's stuff\u201d and despised them for that, considering them as processes of the artisan, and not of the artist.\nFrom these pieces, in this process of self-reflection, I rewrite my own history, build new plots with my hands.","space":"I propose that the pieces be displayed on a wall, in a space of approximately 2 meters in length. The pieces can be fastened to the wall with nails, since they are quite light. I present an image of suggested assembly of the parts in the annexes.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":1,"names":"Renata","surname":"Lohmann","email":"relohmann@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"6077564687","address":"rua dos Louros, 350","city":"Lajeado","nacionality":"Brazilian","country_id":"34","birthdate":"1985-10-26T03:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1985-10-26T03:00:00.000Z","telephone":"(+55)(51)991919718","web":"@relohmannfoto"}
