1. State of the art, project management and documentation

Research & Ideation

For two years I have been looking for information on the story of my Polish grandfather Kazimierz Gaca, a cryptologist, he deciphered the messages sent by the Nazis during the Second World War thanks to the reproduction they made with a group of resistance fighters Polish, French, Spanish and English from the Enigma typewriter. They worked in parallel with Alan Turing's team in London. Their work is credited with inspiring what became the first computers. The history of most of these Poles has however been hidden and most of them died during this War.

The climate of wars in which we find ourselves today, between the occupation of Palestine and Ukraine, also led me to want to forge links with different places and stories of resistance.

In my plastic and performative work, I wanted to create an alphabet, which I hid in my fabrics woven on the Jacquard loom, also considered one of the ancestors of the computer and binary code. The alphabet is presented in the form of symbols which are thus transcribed into patterns, on the outer bands of the fabric.

How to give back a voice to our ancestors and draw inspiration from them to create our own form of resistance today.

I represent here a Norn, who is one of three witches, from Norse mythology, who weave fate. They were the weavers of peace. Webs of Power comes from Starawk's book

The title of my project is "Webs of power: Weave Resistance", which comes from Starhawk's 1999 ecofeminist book, Webs of power: note from the Global Uprising.

??? tip "about your images..delete the tip!!"

1. Remember to credit/reference all your images to their authors. Open source helps us create change faster together, but we all deserve recognition for what we make, design, think, develop.

2. remember to resize and optimize all your images. You will run out of space and the more data, the more servers, the more cooling systems and energy wasted :) make a choice at every image :)

This image is optimised in size with resolution 72 and passed through tinypng for final optimisation.
