Fiber Affair

Colour data collection featuring a lint roller. In this film, Mathery shows viewers an alternative and yet charming function of the lint roller. Yes, that thing that is always laying on an abandoned shelf in the darkest corner of your house.The sticky roller removes lint and fibers from clothing via adhesive paper, trapping colour in the process. What if you get to keep each lint-dirty sticker? Mathery’s playful examination of this domestic obsession takes place in a colourful daily routine made up of an irresistible set that characterizes our design approach. An impressive, mosaic colour palette covers a surface, made with adhesive paper collected over time. Appearing at the end of the video, it will mimic the colours of Mathery’s wardrobe. Fiber Affair premiered on NOWNESSAward: VAEFF2016, Video Art and Experimental Film Festival -Tribeca, New York.
