Here are a couple of rough translations of Francis' text:
1st translation (http://ets.freetranslation.com/)
Explanation by my textile
The seeking to structures and that so strongly possible try to give defense
is an aspect that returns in all my work. As well in my textile as in my
edelsmeedkunst is one permanently seek to form, color, texture,
structure, shadow…
The techniques and acquired knowledge of the different disciplines fill that
seek on.
One medium completes the others actual.
Textile becomes happen considered yet surplus as a flat, 2-D. A design on a
ground, earlier as a painter its canvas utilize. A put in of areas,
flattened figures on a flat whole. This thus without pushing really by in
the nature of textile, zijnde structure of fibres. For me is textile an
order of fibres. Fibres, that a certain thickness, form, color smell, and
feel have. That fibres form has the basis and that basis thus a strong
3-dimensioneel character. The appear me then also complete sin round that
3-D character away to weave, to knit or to manipulate in a flat
2-dimensioneel piece textile. De nature of my
textile view is games with that 3-D feel and the attempt to emphasize in the
final result, the seeking to an ideal structure, it in such a way manipulate
of chain and impact a to pieces on self to obtain. From there that I court
fast onconventionele inrijgpatronen will apply, no bill want to love with
the valid rules vlotters, bonds leather, thread thickness that you well and
cannot utilize with sister and so bond.
Through against the rules of the valid textile in I come to go court to
stand incredibly very closed by the old baroque and medieval tradition of
textile. Also they very strongly had been inclined round that 3-D feel in
their textile again to give. Valid rules of thickness and bonds was also
something that practical onbestaande was. It gives me a certain feeling of
freedom and also of solidarity with the age-old textile tradition of our
western civilization. A kind of "back to the roots" feeling.
The reason about which I in shawls work am mainly because I a certain frenzy
have with shawls. They chain wrap me immoderately, the manner on which you
carry can she,, drape on the body, has shaved no border. I attempt they so
to make that she even, without bearer/body as ground, an object on self are.
It is not so obviously textile chained to remain hold in a shawl. A proof
drawer is mostly 30cm * 30cm. On the other hand is a shawl approximately
200cm long, here must you then also 200cm remain chain.
For me is the challenge larger.
It demands downright more of myself.
And final is that the ultimate seek.
You own strive, remain move standards and landlords.

Explanation at my textile
Zoeken to structures and that this way strong possible try at is give an
aspect which returns in already my work. Both in my textile if in my
edelsmeedkunst is permanent zoeken it to form, colour, composition,
structure, shade…
Techniques and acquired knowledge of different disciplines to fill proposal
that.
The one medium completes the other in fact
Textile becomes still surplus as a area, 2-D event considered. drawing on a
subsoil, rather if a painter its canvas exploited. Introduce of areas, flat
characters on a flat whole. This therefore without really by pressing in the
nature of textile, are advancement of fibres. For me textile a chain of
fibres is. Fibres which certain cross-section, form, colour, and sense
fragrance have. Those fibres form the basis and that basis have therefore
strong 3-dimensioneel a character. The seems me thus total sin that 3-D
weave character, at knitting or to manipulate in a area 2-dimensional piece
textile. The nature of my textile vision is game with that 3-D feeling and
the to attempt emphasise in the final result, zoeken to ideal structure,
such manipulating collar and screen for a piece on to obtain itself. Of
there that I rather rapidly non-conventional inrijgpatronen will apply, does
not want take into account the applying rules of floats, tie leathers,
garendikte which you, however, and cannot exploit at sister and such a tie.
By against the rules of the applying textile entering bowl I free improbably
very dense to stand at the old baroque and medieval tradition of textile.
Also they had been strongly tended very for that 3-D feeling in their
textile to reflect. Applying rules of cross-section and ties were that also
something practically non-existent was. It gives a certain feeling me; of
freedom and tevens of solidarity with secular textile tradition of our
Western civilisation. A type of back to the roots feeling.
The reason why I work in scarfs is mainly because I certain frenzy has with
scarfs. They captivate me immensely, the way your she can carry, winds,
drapes on the body, has schier no to border. I attempt them this way make
that them even, without bearer/body as subsoil, an object in itself are.
It is not this way obvious textile captivating continue keep in a scarf.
A test patch is generally 30cm * 30cm.
On the other hand a scarf is approximately 200cm long, here you must thus
200cm to continue captivate.
For me the challenge is more formidable.
It demands simply more of myself.
And eventual is that ultimate zoeken.
Your own pursuit, standards and values continue move.
