Starting from a background in documentary photography, and inspired by the long tradition of handwork in her family, Hana Miletić has developed an artistic language based mainly on the creation of woven textile works. Miletić uses the weaving process to reflect on the social and cultural realities in which the artist herself works. Weaving, which requires practice, time, care and attention, allows the artist to formulate new relationships between work, thought and the emotional sphere, as well as to counteract certain economic and social conditions at work, such as acceleration, standardization and transparency. In Belgrade, the artist exhibits a few hand-woven works from the Materials series (2015-ongoing). The works are based on mended infrastructures, architectural elements or vehicles (windows, rear-view mirrors, etc.), held together with plastic, tape, or other simple materials, which Miletić photographed in public spaces in her hometown Zagreb. The artist uses her photographs as “cartoons,” to borrow a term used in tapestry, in the production of her textile pieces, thus activating a situated process that produces material and haptic images. Through her use of weaving, Miletić reproduces public gestures of care and repair while consciously dealing with the encountered states of transition.
