Spigolatura n°68 by Susanna Costantini is part of the Gleaning series, a collection of minimalist textile panels inspired by Agnès Varda’s documentary Les glaneurs et la glaneuse. Rooted in the concept of gleaning, these works embody the act of reclaiming and repurposing, a practice that is both materially necessary and emotionally profound.
Gleaning is an act of discernment—a moment of evaluation and choice—where one decides whether to let go, recover, or transform. Each piece in this series is meticulously woven from the remnants of warps and past weavings, creating textured geometric compositions that breathe new life into discarded threads.
Balancing diverse fibers, techniques, and structures, Costantini’s work evokes abstract landscapes, where the interplay of material and form reveals a deep understanding of textile craft and experimentation. Developed through years of dedication and mastery, these one-of-a-kind weavings stand as meditations on sustainability, process, and artistic reinvention.
