Remnant

One of a kind knitted textile artwork by Lauren Tausend.

Framed in a Vic Ash with hanging wire. Measuring 99cm x 68cm x 6cm.

Machine knitted using wool, silk, cotton, linen and other miscellaneous yarns. These yarns have been either naturally dyed, sourced from mill end or dead stock, locally sourced or acquired second hand.

Remnant forms part of the Migration series exhibited at Off The Kerb Gallery in July 2020. The Migration series references aerial views of the Victorian landscape. Taking inspiration from the texture, shape and movement of the rivers, bush land, and mountains in and around the areas I call home. Experiencing the journey of moving from one home to another and the push and pull between living in the city but always being drawn back to the country and the coast. Exploring these concepts through the process of knitting, where each individual stitch cannot be undone once knitted. These knitting paintings tell a story of my ever-changing interactions with the surrounding environment.
