Threads: Material, Myths & Symbols: Draiflessen Collection, Mettingen

By Jorg Von Alvensleben

How cultural associations with thread shape our perceptions of fate, life and power

Inspired by ancient myths and legends that still echo in contemporary culture, Threads deals with the symbolic meanings that thread holds for human life. Works of contemporary art by Louise Bourgeois, Antonio Tempesta and others invite us to engage with the meaning of threads, and to interweave them with personal experience.
