Aglaia filming, as volunteers of PeaceWatchSwitzerland do in Hebron. 

Aglaia's concept "EGOgraphic Map" has been selected for the "Jetzt Kunst" art project and her fiber production will be part of this year's open-air exhibition. You are all warmly welcome in Schüpfen (Bern) on July the 6th for the opening!

Her work has been recently shown in Maniago (I) for the sixth edition of the "Concorso internazionale d'Arte Tessile / Fiber Art Premio Valcellina".

Actually she's working on a new series of textile fabrics, reflecting her recent experience travelling through the occupied palestinian territories, in the West Bank, toghether with the photographer Reto Albertalli. Their common impressions are  giving life to a new body of work, prolongating the conceptual and aesthetical strenghts of the previous "doppio filo" sequence.

We are back from Palestine.

I'm full of emotions, faces and lifes I meet in the trip. I'll take some time to digest it.

The most important thing I want to exteriorise is the big inequity between Palestinian people I meet and weapon israeli soldiers who are slowly going to let the Palstinian folk disappear.

What about Jewish people lived more than 60 years ago... ?

Words won't be able to describe what I feel. For this reason Reto and me have to work a lot now... soon you'll see new works.

Regrettably the exhibition in Berlin will be postponed?
