On
Richard Buxani hems intergenerational narratives in the exhibition “MAK-INA,” centering on the sewing machine as an object located within nodes of signifiers.

We recall grandmothers and mothers sewing for their children. They sustain the family or sew at leisure as a gesture of care. The thought overlaps with the image of women in homes, side-street dress shops, and factories stitching cloth and spinning fiber.


Buxani reimagines and repurposes old sewing machines he collected over nearly a decade. He transmutes each piece into beautiful utilitarian forms and gives them new life.
