Today I wanna talk a bit about this amazing tapestry by Laure Prouvost that I had the opportunity to see at the İstanbul Modern Art Museum.

Firsly, I want to touch on the chosen medium of the artwork, a tapestry. Tapestries, at least in my mind are very home-y. This sort of woven, soft texture is something you might see in a carpet. It's welcoming and cozy, and the softness of most of the colors the artist utilized also reinforces this comfortable environment.

Secondly, I love how text is utilized in this piece. It makes me think of something like the "speech scrolls" in 14th/15th century paintings and "comics". And I cannot for the life of me remember who did this and when, but I swear I have also seen other, older paintings that write text describing the thoughts of characters within the piece onto the background or objects within the composition? Yeah it reminds me very much of that.

The intimacy of many of these statements we see as text is heartwarming. And of course the many details that could be incomprehensible references to us, the average viewer, that has a story behind it that we are not privy too. Sometimes this is depicted literally, such as the sign that presumably reads something like "Room 15 could be in room 22", where we can't really be sure what the actual quote is due to the obscured parts of the sign. Other times, its something like the poetic "Here a palm tree in the shade a blue triangle relaxing naked", or any random object the artist specifically chose to include, like the microwave. These things are likely to have a story, some background to them that only the artist and any of their friends or partners who were with them in this studio can recall.

This piece depicts personal memories and nostalgia belonging to the artist, yet does it in such an abstract way that the average viewer, especially if they are also an artist, can still relate to the vaguely domestic living space.
