With large-scale woven pieces, hanging sculptures, and wall pieces spanning five decades, Balpinar's textile experiments represent a resolute but continuously evolving blend of material and shape, serving unexpected narratives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePredominantly employing a semi-abstract visual language, she amalgamates her knowledge of traditional flat weaves with imaginative interpretations of centuries-old techniques. Her work forms a humanistic projection field, emphasising what we all have in common, such as our passions and dreams, regardless of where in the world we live.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47430126731500,"sku":"9788857253800","price":69.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9788857253800.jpg?v=1774559693","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/belkis-balpinar-through-woven-times-9788857253800","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
