A long time ago, I found an inflatable pink pony from New York. One unexpected day, it lost its air for good. I became sad, fixated. How to bring the pony to life? This woven series narrates the inner voice of the pink pony through three short scenes set in an otherworldly storyworld. These scenes are translated into a series of sketches, using a mix of creative coding, drawing, and finally, jacquard weaving.
Two of the artworks have been made with a self-developed semi-generative tool. The tool redraws images with a random generator and colour data derived from the source images. The objective was to investigate how weaving and material choices, size and colour affect the original artwork along with the narrative.
The project was initiated during the Visual Narrative studio course at Aalto University in Spring 2025.
