I set out to inverse the process and bring to the foreground all the beauty of the tightly woven canvas by deliberately dilating the crossing threads, thus making these obvious, tactile. By placing an imaginary magnifying glass on the canvas I enlarge the openings, which appear as breathing spaces. In these interstices colour flows through creating a chromatic sensation alongside the tactile one.

"Open weaving"
I’ve always been fascinated by such words as weave, weft, web, and twine. Yet, in the act of painting, facing the canvas, I had the sense of covering up the weave, pushing it to the background, making it appear like an anonymous flat surface. It seemed unjust to dissimulate the weave which in itself spoke of pristine beauty, of horizontal and vertical lines forever running up and down.I set out to inverse the process and bring to the foreground all the beauty of the tightly woven canvas by deliberately dilating the crossing threads, thus making these obvious, tactile.
