The Ravishment
2026
27” x 8”, double weave pickup with cotton yarns
    Handwoven animation study of Georges Schwizgebel’s 1982 “The Ravishment of Frank N. Stein”. Like the piece above, this is made with 5 frames on each side. The values are intentionally placed and transitioned through the doors in order to allow both sides to loop together, not just separately. This creates an endless space, although the physically woven object itself is quite small. Trapped in an infinite space absent of figure, this reflects an early sequence of Schwizgebel’s animation, drawn out and prolonging confusion and repetition, before coming to any awareness of what might occupy these surroundings.
