Sculptures inspired by the female figures from Norse mythology who flew over battlefields, bringing the bravest warriors back to life to join the deities in Valhalla, Joana Vasconcelos' Valkyries are made from textile materials, using a variety of fabrics, crochet and ornamental trimmings. The end result is a surprising play of volumes, textures and colours, which uses skilled craftsmanship and brings the link between arts and crafts into the 21st century. Composed of a central body, head, tail and various arms, many of the Valkyries also combine handicrafts with technology, through the insertion of light which - simulating vibration and breathing - gives them movement and life. In this particular case, the artist used noble fabrics that take us back to the Silk Road and the interconnection between Portuguese and Macanese traditions in a site-specific creation for MGM Macau.
