Burial Bundles
Name of Artist: Jimena Maria Bedoya
Location: Chicago
IG: @jmbeyond_
Name of Art Piece: Burial Bundles
Date of Creation: 2024
Technique: Knitting, crochet and natural dye
Description: The representation of wrapping by creating curves, the sense of a big cloth, the incomplete and natural dyes work as acts of mending, salvaging and healing of objects that are not longer there. Wrapping becomes a symbolic gesture: a way of safeguarding histories, embodying care, and re knitting relationships. Forms take inspirations from peruvian mantles and icons of protection, resistance and strength. This piece is an offering - an open archive that seeks to inform, remember and reconcile.
