Overview of this event
‘Linda Sok: Reincarnations of an altar cloth’ presents a selection of works from the ongoing series ‘Deities in Temples’ by Cambodian-Australian artist Linda Sok.
Delving into the matrilineally handed down practice of Pidan, the ‘Deities in Temples’ series presents re-imaginings of lost, stolen, collected, and destroyed silk weavings. Pidan, a poly-chromatic weft silk weaving tradition, faced near erasure due to the targeted persecution of weavers during the Cambodian Khmer Rouge Regime. This resulted in a scarcity of ancestral weaving knowledge. Through this body of work, Sok engages with decolonial practices and methodologies to reclaim fragments of her Cambodian heritage.
