Til We Become the Sun
2026
Till We Become the Sun is a textile-based series that traces cycles of resilience and transformation through the language of fabric. These works evoke memory and repair, yet they also pulse with the radiant force of the sun itself. Solar flares - those vast arcs of fire leaping outward into space - emerge here as metaphors for human persistence and expansion. Like flares breaking through the sun’s surface, bursts of colour and texture ripple across the textile surface, suggesting eruptions of vitality that defy containment.
The materials hold both fragility and endurance, echoing the unpredictable rhythms of light and heat that sustain life. In drawing on the visual drama of solar flares, the series entwines the intimacy of handwork with the immensity of cosmic cycles, placing the act of making within a continuum that stretches from the earthly to the celestial. Till We Become the Sun ultimately calls viewers to imagine themselves within this radiant process: threads fragile yet unbroken, gathering force, and surging outward with luminous intensity.
