Japandi: shared aesthetics and influences
From October 4, 2021 to October 31, 2021
Statement:
"Based on a concrete and geometric idiom I work with woven tapestries. In my compositions, I use lines and shapes to achieve a tension and a spatial effect, with inspiration drawn from architecture. The tapestries are woven on a foot-powered loom; the materials are mainly dyed sisal and flax."
