Au sujet de la série Weaving the Ocean (2020-en cours) :

Cette série transforme les jets à la mer ("jetsam") - cordes en plastique démêlées des racines des palétuviers le long de la côte indonésienne - en tapisseries d'une beauté obsédante inspirées par la riche culture textile du pays d'origine de l'artiste.

Esthétiquement attrayantes, les tapisseries de Bayuaji sont le résultat d'un processus créatif de récupération et de recyclage. L'artiste et des assistants recrutés localement parcourent le littoral de Bali afin de collecter et de nettoyer des cordes en plastique colorées échouées sur le rivage, puis de les démêler en fils fins. En collaboration avec un atelier de tissage traditionnel balinais, Bayuaji conçoit et crée des pièces textiles uniques dans le respect de l'environnement, tout en apportant une sécurité financière aux artisans et aux économies locales qui ont subi l'impact négatif de la pandémie mondiale. La pratique sculpturale de Bayuaji, tout aussi étonnante, s'inspire également des détritus de l'océan comme matériau de base - notamment des cordes, des minéraux et d'autres éléments qui s'échouent sur le rivage.

On Weaving the Ocean (2020-ongoing):

This series transforms the jetsam of plastic ropes disentangled from the roots of mangrove trees along the coast of Indonesia into hauntingly beautiful tapestries inspired by the rich textile culture of the artist’s homeland.

Aesthetically engaging, Bayuaji’s tapestries are the result of a creative salvage and upcycling process that saw the artist and locally recruited assistants scour the shoreline of Bali in order to collect and clean colorful plastic ropes that washed up on shore, and then unravel them into fine threads. In collaboration with a traditional Balinese weaving workshop, Bayuaji designs and creates unique textile pieces in an environmentally conscious way that also provides financial security to local crafts persons and economies that were negatively impacted by the global pandemic. Bayuaji’s equally stunning sculptural practice also draws upon the detritus of the ocean as source material – including ropes, minerals and other elements that wash up on shore.
