‘The Dynamo’ and ‘The Venus’ by Edgar Orlaineta is a pair of tapestries produced in collaboration with the luxury rug manufacturers Odabashian for the ongoing exhibition at Centro Cultural La Tallera, in Cuernavaca, Mexico. Odabashian’s fondness for traditional techniques and fine aesthetics weaves seamlessly with Orlaineta’s passion for hybrid sculptural forms that draw from modernism, pop culture, and historical references. The result sees two limited edition pieces that translate the artist’s sculptures — two curvaceous figures that represent a male and a female body in an abstract form — into meticulously crafted gobelin-style tapestries.
