PiCMAT paintings are the outcome of PiCMAT social ritual that took place in diverse Amsterdam locations, at Bos en Lommerplein 148, Van Eesteren Museum, Werkplaats Molenwijk (Framer-Framed), de Meevaart and Tropen Museum. These collectively woven paintings are made from unnecessary plastic bags donated by people. During their creation, brands (logos and images) on bags dissolve and transform into the abstract tactile image. PiCMAT paintings have a size of a personal space (65 x 85 cm according to Proxemics studies). They turn into functional objects during the Nomadic Picnic performance, where they are used for creating the space. This project brings in the notions of new materialism, cultural ecology.
