HEKNE x Gjone: Origin
The needle is the ancient starting point for our entire craft. Such a simple, yet powerful object that has had enormous significance for human survival and development. History changed the moment someone pulled a thread of plant fiber through a piece of animal hide using a needle made of bone.
As a tribute to the very first needle, we have turned the needle into a piece of jewelry, and the jewelry into a needle.
[ watch the film ]
a wavy arrow / through the heart / a string of lightning / to knit the parts
one resolute and mighty spine / that forces chaos into line / it pierces through the heavy weave / to heal the wounds that fibres leave
over my chest / golden and proud / it shines alone / it screams out loud
this is my choice / life-string well kept / to make my garments resurrect
