I want to give wool the recognition it deserves by embracing its diversity in colours, textures, and characteristics. During the slow making-process, a space is created where time allows for mutual learning and fostering a relationship of care between maker and material.
Connecting
Wool has the property of being connective: between people, techniques, stories, histories, and the future. It is a medium that can bring something into being, which makes it all the more relevant.
The relationship between humans and material is necessary; we must cherish it and continuously rediscover it. The attention, care, and appreciation for this material are, for me, no longer just a personal alliance, but a way to connect more broadly with the world around me.
