Solid Plot
SASHA ROTTS
During the last few years, I've been working mostly with embroidery and textile. My works of
embroidery technique mainly are based on so-called subconscious drawings. Free doodles,
bright colors, a play of meanings, breaking rules - all of these things traced in these works.
The idea of the series is to show that drawings could be implemented not only in traditional
techniques but also using fabrics, threads, and needles.
The more big scaled textile compositions, is named Textile painting. The idea of these works is
that instead of paint I’m using the textile pieces, stitching them together. The colorful
combination of different pieces and figures create strong visual images. For this project I’m
using colorful non-patterned textile pieces, combining them with each other.
Together with Kahra’s works, an interesting solid plot is appearing.

For Kreenholm I have been working with the subject of time and working schedules, these
drawings are combined with the more naive drawings and the theory of the SUPER NAIVE.
In one of my drawings, an elephant can be seen on the table, above the table floats a
happy-face balloon. It's a birthday party without the cake. The siblings meet in the kitchen,
where a world is often built around objects and furniture. My drawings are based around my
invented term SUPER NAIVE. In the SUPER NAIVE, the stroke is unartificial and leads to the
more subconscious layers of consciousness. Each image is an autonomous world where the
laws of gravity are questioned.
