Art in our hotel

Kima Guitart - Artista tèxtil

Through art we want to relive an important part of the essence of the house: a tribute to its century-old store selling high quality fabrics.

Through art, we want to pay tribute to an important part of the essence of the building, its century-old shop selling high quality fabrics, and the knitwear factory Mas Deop, owned by the last family to live in the house.

Not to mention that we are in Igualada, where the cotton fabric and later the knitwear factories were one of the great economic engines of the city.

So, with this substratum, we want to exhibit works created with different textile materials, sculptures, paintings, architecture…reinterpreting craft techniques and elevating them to an avant-garde art form. Show beauty through threads.

Textile is gaining a growing presence in today’s art world and the trend is materializing in exhibitions, increasingly frequent, in major museums. This emergence of textile expression in contemporary art encourages us to carry out the project, to come into contact with leading figures, to contribute to giving visibility and expanding it’s understanding.

Territoris

With this series we explore the “commonplaces” we inhabit and inhabit us. The works are inspired by territories, both physical and symbolic, that evoke and transport us to different colors, textures, spaces and horizons.

Our language for the creation of this series are colors, repetition of shapes, textures and transparencies. Silk is the medium that serves as the basis for us to be able to modulate our “voice”.

The fabric has been with humanity for centuries. Perhaps because she is so close or because she has been associated with the female world, she has not been given the importance she deserves. Many emotional and tactile memories are related to this material.

We have turned working with traditionally feminine techniques and materials into the paradigm of our form of expression, thus claiming a feminine form of artistic creation.
