To record the duration of this work would be to sit alongside Betty Pomerleau each day over two months’ time; to watch as her fingers stretch forward and back, a choreographic accumulation of time unravelling into space. The continuum of repeated motions—spining, unwinding, weaving, unweaving—extends from one room into the next, where threads are cut and gathered, and tied into knots.
Found parts of a loom, worked over by many hands, are assembled into a slow-moving machine. What might appear as a chain of production is instead a single breath carried between two bodies—human and mechanized. Four hundred limp, pliable threads are transfixed and bound to its frame through tension. This is the shared time of working together in relation to a structure that both supports and resists motion.
Within this duration, atmospheric variations enter the work—dust folds into its edges, slight scarring and abrasions appear through the slip of a finger, light that seeps in as day cycles into night.…
