Inhaltsangabe

Who does not know the thread of life, the common or silken thread? This book deals with the symbolic meanings that thread holds for human life, as already evident in the myths of antiquity: the thread of Ariadne in the labyrinth; the young woman, Arachne, transformed into a spider; and the three Moirai who spin the thread of human life. To this day, these stories touch on existential questions such as individuality and collectivity, power and powerlessness, doubt and certainty, fate and responsibility. Works of contemporary art and historical graphics, presented in both image and text, create spaces for thought and association―inviting us to engage with the openness of the meaning of threads, and to interweave them with personal thoughts and experiences. Text: Birte Hinrichsen, Dr. Corinna Otto, Dr. Maria Spitz.
