Interconnectedness. Layering. Complexity.
'Weaving' the 'clear' monofilament—layer upon
layer and in no particular pattern—draws attention
to interconnectedness. The layers of monofilament
increase, and become very dense in much the
same way that memories are made in the brain.
Memories are made and there is potential distortion
in remembering.
The nail heads placed in the creases hold together all of the filaments which
are absolutely interconnected and made of one single length of material.
