A knot is indicative of how closely something is bound, tied up, with itself, or with something else. As a marine measure of speed, it is also suggestive of how quickly, how speedily, something moves away. Knots link worlds of passages, transitions and departures. Knots that bind, knots that fray. Tears follow knots.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are the knot, and sometimes, we come undone. And then, it\u2019s back to living again, to know how to thread the rope, to tie the knot, to read the wind, and to attend to care and the cosmos<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each of the glass knots rests on individual small carpets, all of whom are woven with patterns of Indian rivers. Together, each relay, is placed on a transparent Perspex shelf. Placed at different heights, the shelves present like points on a wave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
