设计说明
Knit
Geometric structure that operates at different levels.
Each of its turns from a network, which represents a platform for interaction and communication between elements.
This fabric, composed of horizontal and vertical axes, assists in the alignment of cities in the composition of textual elements, in the connection of social relationships.
Its strength is in the possibility of doing and undoing, in creating empty spaces, openings and porosities, which reveal and transform into new identities.
The whole technical process of knit parts is developed by the networks that structure all the work.
Parts that do not involve the use of metal, manual work, are developed as the crafts of Protuguese rugs such as the Beiriz Rug.
Its origins is in the tradition of tapestry and introduces the technique of the Turkish knot, where images are formed by thousands of knots made manually.
For the transformation of the metal parts, the liquid wax technique that involves these same nets is used and then sent to the foundry.
