The second year textiles show at chelsea is quite an inspiring experience, there were a lot of artists' work that took the attention from everyone who went to see it.
it was divided into different areas, the print/cad, the knit, the stitch and the weave. On the first floor, there were one knitwear that I was specifically interested in, can't really remember her name anymore, but it was a knitted top with colors gradually fading into each other, beautifully done and had this silky texture to it which makes people want to put it on.
Going on to the second floor, there were more works appealing to me, one corner at where those colorful tables and bags were displayed, I took a detailed look at the design of the table made out of stripes of latex mixed with colors,the artist Stephanie Deaves made very intriguing as it is generically unique in terms of the concept and the way of presenting.
I think walking a bit backwards, you would notice a little space with a sketchbook and simple and pretty prints from the artist called Anna Lepparen, whose work is about exploring the lightness and pressure of the underground tunnels, remains of previous posters and Gerhard Richter's paintings. I enjoyed the idea of exploring paintings, as it is like doing translation, from one language to another.
