Installation: 250m Of Curb Chain by Cleo Van Woensel.. 2018.Photo by: Sam De Herdt.From series: 250m Of Curb Chain.In this work, the link chain, one of the most known archetypes of the jewellery scene, occupies a prominent position. Sewing thread is replaced by a silver-plated link chain in a conventional set of clothing that consists of a jacket, trousers, a shirt and a skirt. The garments are hand sewn in a chequered textile. The lockstitch out of link chain becomes a ‘construction’ that simultaneously connects textile, jewellery and the human skin. This is how the 250m-curb chain becomes more than a shimmering decoration. It is an essential, functional material in the construction of the fabric..
