Pile of pure New Zealand 3ply wool, ca 10% acrylic yarn and artificial silk // Privy - White by Jan Fabre, created in 2002, is a striking tapestry that employs a black and white contrast to convey an unusual and surreal scene. The artwork features a row of toilet bowls arranged in a corner, each with fluid-like forms spilling from them, rendered in a monochromatic style that enhances the starkness and surreal quality. The checkered lines above add a geometric rigidity that contrasts with the organic flow of the spilling forms, while the triangular shapes in the top corners introduce a hint of symmetry and mystery. This tapestry, crafted with a blend of New Zealand wool, acrylic yarn, and artificial silk, explores themes of the mundane transformed into the surreal, inviting viewers to contemplate the boundary between utility and art, and to reflect on Fabre’s unique approach to everyday objects with a touch of absurdity.

What is art fabrication?
Art Fabrication is a process used in the production of technically challenging or large-scale artworks. It occurs when a designer or artist is unable to fully realize their concept or design on their own and seeks assistance from a fabrication studio. These studios are equipped with specialized machinery, resources, and skilled labor necessary to execute complex art projects to a high standard.
