Solo exhibition of recent textile translations where language, stitches, and code overlap.
Amy Wike's work plays with the ideas of translation, interpretation, and the complexities of language. In this body of work, Wike takes small nuances of speech— turns of phrase, words that have multiple meanings, and the varying ways we interpret them— and abstracts them beyond recognition by translating them into Morse code and knitting the transcription row by row with yarn.
