M. Angustias Bertomeu Martínez & Cristina Llorens Gisbert

e-virgins

e-virgins is composed of two digital projections, which work on the reconstruction of the Eve archetype: The European Eve is de-sacralized in the activities of her daily life. The indigenous elderly woman knit the quilts that are the peoples' encyclopedias.  Threads and tints, their history's codes, their software. Textile mills and distaffs, the traditional medium, the hardware.  Bows and dots, the alphabet of their language, the pixels. Religiosity, invoked in litanies, the wetware.
