by Biljana Roman

Creating in textile usually starts with traditional education. This learning includes many kinds of strict procedures, characters of textile, materials and their qualities. However, as with every good artist, Biljana Roman has escaped all these rules and was found her own very individualistic form of expression by creating threedimensional tapestries shaped like dome fiber structures that weightlessly float in the air or hang like a filling without a warp.

Biljana Roman’s miniature pillows are the perfect example how the secret formula actually works. On the surface of only 10 squared centimeters, Biljana summarizes all the layers and complexities of her specific language. Through a number of transparent skins, she uses different twisted threads, silk yarns, wad that are sewn together, one atop the other or in a sequence, forming extremely gentle composition in which everything is visible but interwoven. While following the elaborate lines, you find yourself caught up in the fine fibers.

Despite its doll size, it’s something that is difficult to not explore.

The same goes for the shells where the softness of pillows gives place to the firm structure. By wrapping thin threads into thicker ropes to build a solid structure out of small and fragile parts, Biljana actually reflects upon the process that birds use to construct their nests. The material has many options, but it is the intuition and creative mind that can reinterpret nature’s acts in such a special way.

Biljana Roman expressed herself through a number of different Medias. Since graduating from the Faculty of Applied Arts, department of Textile design in Belgrade, she has had published illustrations in newspapers and children magazines, has illustrated books, and made sceneries for children shows. It was those experiences that made it possible to think primarily on the visual and tactile level and to test all the options one media could have.

The radical result of such a position is Biljana’s tapestry that is only that by the name – there is no warp and filling, there is no weight hanging in two dimensions from the wall. Instead, there is a fantastic floating structure, from which threads form a gentle fluffy shape that resemble an exotic sea anemone. The subversion of traditional vocabulary is total, and its impact is magnificent. Not only is this a step towards space without gravities, but also towards a space of pure visual fantasy. It is unclear what exactly holds these fibers together, until viewed up close, then you see the same, precise, persistent and detailed work that Biljana tested before in her miniatures.

The structural tapestry, shaped like a textile, three-dimensional dome, follows the same principle, although dark colors, thick threads and rugged surface suggest completely different aesthetics. What is crucial is Biljana’s unifying experimental approach. Variations in red can be perceived as an abstract game of beautiful shades that float in the transparent or semitransparent superposition. However, they are certainly not only that. On closer inspection it can be seen that the structure is beyond the rules and on the edge of sustainability.

At the Balkan Fiber Art colony, Biljana Roman shifted away from her usual form and produced a composition "Multiplication" that consisted of four pairs of figures. Made of rope, each figured used a unique kind of rope, shaped into a specific pattern. These patterns like skins reflect very individualistic characteristics. Although they multiple, they always turn out uniquely different from the prior creations. In the context of the creative process, we cannot escape experiment, but in the context of content, we go back to Biljana’s experience with illustrations, stage design, and the entire narrative heritage she so far collected.

Through her art, Biljana Roman explores the potential of material. She goes to the very core of substance and then re-examines the construction logic. However, but she also questions the meaning of shapes and colors, finding challenges in the Dance on the edge.
