Une curation de Flavio Scaloni, Gallery Manager chez Galerie Lo Scalo – Often associated with the "fil rouge" or the Red Thread of Fate, it represents continuity, lineage, and the complex weaving of shared human experience. Psychologically, it evokes themes of entanglement, repair, and the intricate ties that bind us to our history. Since 1950, the thread has transitioned from a domestic material into a powerful conceptual tool. Chiharu Shiota is a definitive voice in this medium, using vast networks of yarn to explore memory in her immersive installation The Key in the Hand (2015). Louise Bourgeois similarly employed sewing as a metaphor for psychological healing, exemplified in her fabric work The Good Mother (2003). In photography, the world-famous Francesca Woodman utilized string in evocative works like Self-portrait with string (1976) to visualize the tension between the body and its space. This collection highlights how artists weave metaphorical lines to map human existence.
