A Flax Project

Weaving

She purchased the entire harvest of a Dutch flax farmer with the aim of exploring how flax products might be more locally produced. Central to the project was the craft of rope making. She designed lights, an ottoman and a rug based on flax fibre rope. The fascinating process of flax growing and selling led to further works and became part of a bigger researchproject on the possibilities of flax. A tablecloth and napkins were the result of this larger project.
