Cecilia Brunson Projects is delighted to present an exhibition of textile art by Claudia Alarcón and Silät, a collective of artists from the Wichí communities of Santa Victoria Este, Salta, Argentina. This is the artists’s first UK exhibition, produced in collaboration with curator Andrei Fernández, and follows 2023 presentations at the Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires and at the Hessel Museum of Art, Bard College, New York, alongside Thañi, a wider group of weavers from the region.
This exhibition constitutes a radical recasting of Wichí textile traditions, inherited methods of production translated only in recent years into large-scale artworks, which have provided a means for women across generations to transmit contemporary Wichí culture into the webs of international art dialogues. These artworks signify at once a collective response to changing dynamics between Indigenous communities and a wider world, and individual impulses to express creatively and imaginatively.
