Artwork location: Germany
This intricate textile artwork captures an intimate moment among four individuals resting in a harmonious embrace, exuding warmth and serenity. The central figures are depicted in tender repose, their expressions tranquil and comforting. Surrounding them are layers of richly textured fabric, suggesting interconnected relationships. A strikingly detailed cat, nestled below the group, adds an element of serenity and domesticity, its vibrant blue hues contrasting yet complementing the earthy tones above. At the bottom, a small yellow square with a bird motif introduces a whimsical, playful touch. The artist skillfully combines detailed embroidery with a dynamic composition, resulting in a visually compelling narrative of unity and peace. The blend of diverse textures and thoughtful color palette underscores the artwork's profound exploration of human connection and tranquility.

Presentation
Rina-Green Noodle (Irina Sinichkina) creates textile works filled with stories, meanings and care for the world. Her pieces grow out of recycled materials, old clothes and fabrics that have already lived a long life. In her carpet-paintings and soft sculptures, emotions, memories and traces of time are held and woven together.
She calls herself a “trash artist", seeing discarded things as carriers of life that are ready for a new form. The “Noodle" in her artist name comes from the process itself: small fragments of fabric twist and gather into a continuous flow of lines and textures, reminiscent of streams of noodles.
Artist statement
The practice of Rina-Green Noodle emerges from slow, tactile work with material. Textile becomes a field where everyday history, previous uses and personal memories are transformed into new images. Each strip of fabric acts as a stitch in a larger narrative that does not impose a storyline, but invites the viewer to read traces of time, movement and touch.
Working with recycled materials turns into both an ecological and emotional gesture. Her carpets and soft sculptures generate a sense of shelter and care, holding together vulnerability and resilience. The works exist as independent objects and at the same time as fragments of a larger textile world, where attention to “small" things opens space for new stories and ways of being together.
