Igshaan Adams’s textile practice followed the traces of movement

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

Published by ArtThrob from the catalogue for Igshaan Adams’s Weerhoud exhibition at The Hepworth Wakefield, Nkgopoleng Moloi’s essay examined movement as a source for material and spiritual exploration. It connected Adams’s work with dancers to his textile practice, questions of trauma and the body’s cultural inscriptions. The account located these experiments within community collaboration and Sufi thought, extending discussion of the artist beyond decorative readings of weaving.
