Light object No°5 out of the series A JOURNEY BETWEEN REFLECTION AND RECEPTION
At the intersection of construction and deconstruction, somewhere between reflection and reception, structured hand-woven surfaces are created. Interconnections of various fibres, weaves and colour result into exciting textures and cosy ambiences. Placed into new contexts, the experimental woven surfaces are the base for backlighted objects. The synergy of light and the unique hand-woven textiles seamlessly blend impressive atmosphere with aesthetic allure. Adding light to the back of these wovens wonderfully highlights the characteristics and beauty of each fibre. The light component moves into the scene, emphasizing the beauty of the hand-woven textiles even more.
Functioning between wallcovering and ambiental lighting, the light objects respond to the contemporary yearning for personalized places as well as fulfill the demands of creating comforting spaces. Simultaneously, it is an invitation to slow down, to feel the time and space, to receive and reflect – simply to consciously perceive the poetic fusion of construction, deconstruction, and the transformative power of light.
TECHNIQUE
Through the modern approach to an old craft and the combination of different textile techniques, as well as use of natural dyes, an authentic and timeless design is created.
Floating threads and fringes in wool, cotton or linen give the hand-woven fabric a completely new look in the post-treatment. The felting of the woven fabric is always associated with a surprise effect, which is used as an artistic element.
The interplay of light and unique hand-woven textiles with exciting surface effects culminates in backlighted wall covering objects that offer impressive atmosphere and aesthetics, promoting well-being and meeting customer needs. Finished textile pieces are stretched on illuminated aluminium frames. To obtain additional atmosphere in the space, each lighting object can be dimmed individually.
