2017 Jacquard tapestry, silver thread
135 x 180 cm
In the series "Stay Gold" (started in 2015) the artist uses a nineteenth century Jacquard machine, or loom, to translate 1950s computer programme punch cards. A constant in Gil’s work, this flow between different technologies weaves a web of formal contingencies between different historical moments that turn out to be closer than might be expected. The result is an image of fragmented time, a sort of network of connections between different bodies.
