Ine van Son

In the installation 'SPUN IN' I tie woolen strings. The strings form a system, a sort of web, winding themselves around present attachment points. Image for the web of experiences that we carry with us; somtimes these experiences protect us, sometimes they obstruct us. Like a kind of spiderweb: ment to eat and to rest, but it can hold you captive too.

Here the strings have found a bush with in front of it a small bench. They have formed themselves out of the bush downwards and they close in the bench. The bench seems comfortable, but the web of strings leaves little space to sit on. And there where there are no strings, the bush stick out its cutting leaves.
