Hu hu hu

Embroidery on fabric

Installation dimensions vary

2020-2021

Hu hu hu is a series of works inspired by the stories and lullabies the artist heard in her childhood. The use of light tulles hang to create a dream-like space, each tulle swaying as the audience moves inside these stories. This allows the focus to be on the different states of womanhood and coming together with the mist and pastoral characters of nature. Using the transparency of the material, Terkol animates layers of dreams, memories and perceptions which will be multiplied by myths and stories of theaudience. As Hannah Arendt says "the term 'natality' describes not only the birth of the child but also the force of unpredictability unleashed into the world by this event."

Lining Revealed – A Journey Through Folk Wisdom and Contemporary Vision _ Date: 15.03.2025-13.07.2025 _Venue: CHAT Hong Kong

Through the critical lens and creative manifestations of contemporary art, it reveals the historical, social and cultural significance embodied in folk craft and the role craft plays in reinvigorating contemporary vision. The exhibition also speaks to the importance of contemporary art in the conti...
