Eva Petrič’s Webbing is a »hybrid« of her visual art and creative writing with which she presents the web of her 25 art installations in the medium of lace assembage. Made in the period of 2012-2018, they were installed worldwide. Connected into one web by the artist’s perception of lace representing hematomas they seem to exist as a collective web which surpasses time and space. Hematomas occur not only when the wall of blood vessels is damaged and blood leaks into surrounding tisues where it does not belong, but also on emotional and social dimensions. We, as a society or as indiviudals, can ourselves be hematomas when emotional barriers break and emotions explode… Petrič’s hematomas, are further tied into one common web by their ephemerality: when the artist deinstalls them, they cease to exist and can never again appear in the same form – except in this monography.
