El ciclo de las exposiciones dentro del proyecto “Interpretaciones TEXTiles”, tiene su comienzo en año 2014 y como objetivo la conceptualización del textil como rama de arte y la herramienta de análisis de los procesos significativos tanto visual como textual. Para comprender la temática se abordarán las diferentes áreas de arte- textil y pintura. Las diferencias en las metodologías y diferentes puntos de vista artísticas, facilitan el estudio de textil no sólo como arte decorativo, pero como arte conceptual con la profundidad de sus contextos. Las autores del proyecto exploran la relación entre texto, la imagen, el tiempo y el espacio. Migran entre el pasado y el presente, interactúan creando estructuras metafóricas. Las artistas presentan los diferentes estilos y técnicas en función de las distintas obras, combinando métodos tradicionales e innovadores que reflejan las respectivas individualidades y tendencias textiles que prevalecen en el mundo. El formato de la exposición es diverso, interdisciplinario. En el año 2016, para definir y ampliar la capacidad de los conceptos de las exposiciones, como vehículo de la expresión y manifestación del contexto social, vamos analizar las obras artísticas a partir del punto de vista filosófico: integrar la filosofía, crear un mensaje claro, unir los textos del sabio lituano, filósofo del Siglo XX, Vydūnas. Es decir, vamos unir arte, literatura y filosofía. Durante la exposición será organizada una serie de encuentros y los talleres presentados en un formato práctico y de trabajo colaborativo. En tres sesiones presenciales con las artistas serán realizadas las obras, después mostradas en una presentación pública.
