Weavers were the first programmers, and textile the fabric of the digital\u201d<\/em> Amalie Smith\r\n\r\nThe exhibition \"Coded Threads\" traces threads from the origin of the digital, the woven fabric, into today\u2019s and tomorrow\u2019s digital realities. The loom is the basis of binary coding: the thread can go over or under the warp, be a one or a zero. The thread is coded and acquires meaning \u2013 becomes an image, a pattern, a calculation, an algorithm. Everything can become data through the thread in the warp.\r\n\r\nThe exhibition brings together three artists who work with coded threads in their art in distinct ways. All artists allow the artistic process to expand through self-generating or collective systems.\r\n\r\n<strong>Amalie Smith<\/strong> shows a suggestive installation with digitally dreamed images. <strong>Filipa C\u00e9sar<\/strong> follows the intercontinental slave trade and the historical routes of the textile industry. In its wake, she finds woven threads that are coded with resistance. The art group\u00a0<strong>Metahaven<\/strong>\u2019s jacquard-woven textile works, produced on contemporary computerized looms, can be read as fictional maps or systems of thought. For this exhibition, they have created a new work consisting of two parallel weavings alongside moving images. The piece builds on sketches from the museum\u2019s collection.\r\n\r\nSeveral older works from the collection also find their place in the exhibition, forming an inner\r\nprocessing room, a memory center with possible connections that branch out into the contemporary parts of the exhibition.\r\n\r\nCoded Threads is shown at Skissernas Museum 4 December 2025\u20133 May 2026.\r\nRead more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/exhibitions\/coded-threads\/\">exhibition Coded Threads<\/a>\r\n\r\nIn 2025, Metahaven has done an artist residency at Skissernas Museum thanks to generous support from the LMK Foundation.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-12569\" src=\"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"63\" height=\"63\" \/>"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_event\/12520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/lagonda_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"lagonda_event_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_event_cat?post=12520"},{"taxonomy":"lagonda_event_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_event_tag?post=12520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
