Trames et Chaînes: collection été 2019

La trame et la chaîne sont des termes de tissage que Constant utilise pour tisser des histoires sur et entre différents projets. La trame fait référence aux fils tendus sur le métier à tisser. Sur ce site web, les trames collectent de la documentation sur des projets existants. La chaîne est le fil qui passe entre les fils de trame à l’aide d’une bobine. Les chaînes sont donc des histoires thématiques qui établissent des relations entre différents projets.
