Jacqueline Stojanović
24.05.2024 - 22.06.2024
Haydens is pleased to present Colour Ways, Jacqueline
Stojanović’s second solo exhibition at the gallery. This exhibition will
feature an impressive series of hand-woven textiles on gridded steel supports,
continuing her exploration of weaving as an ancient carrier of culture. Alongside the exhibition we will also include collaborative furniture created
with gallery director Hayden Stuart.
This exhibition is part of The National Gallery of Victoria’s Melbourne Design Week 2024 program.
Jacqueline Stojanović is a multidisciplinary artist living and working on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the eastern Kulin Nation. She is an artist, weaver and educator who works with historic and contemporary textile processes. The impetus of Stojanović’s expanded practice is grafted to her belief in weaving as an ancient carrier of culture. She continues the tradition of hand weaving within a contemporary framework to memorialise the cultural practice of her parents respective homelands in former-Yugoslavia and Vietnam. Her works borrow the vocabulary of Abstraction and assemble a host of materials from the industrial to the domestic, collaging time scapes, memories, translations, built environments, and folk traditions, to navigate shifts in collective social and material values, past and present.
