Þráðhyggja

Deconstruction

The term is obsolete
Distrust
Empty words
“sustainability”
“eco-friendly”
“reuse”
I take them apart
Analyze them
Clothes become pieces
Pieces become threads
Threads become…what?

Reconstruction

Freezing a concept
Past becomes future
Combing, felting
Spinning, knitting
Threads lead the way
One pattern, many resaults
A comic resault.
