Although my early training was in fine art as a graphical artist, I have been working in textiles since the early eighties. Collage has always been a part of my work having always collected pieces of fabric and threads and enjoyed improvising something from nothing and transforming it into something new. These are used together with textile techniques in combination with paper making, drawing with threads and collage. I stitch areas both hand and machine following the same formal concerns as one would in painting or graphic e.g. sharp texture, colour, shades. I usually have an idea or a drawing of what I want but playing with the material is a major part of my work. I also use paints and dyes and manufacture pieces if necessary. My works are an assembly of a variety of different fabric, materials and threads, soft materials, that are combined. I employ all sorts of textile techniques: fraying, twisting, tying knots, sewing, embroidering, embroiling, ripping, tearing and joining together again. The cloth becomes bulges and ropes by twisting, rolling, winding and knotting threads around. The shape of a grid or a network does appear by tearing threads out and tangling them by knotting and compressing. Threads - lined up and standing out in sharp relief - work like pencil lines or lines of a graph to give a graphical effect to the works. Several effect levels merge in different intensity to create a spatial dimension, which reaches from the relief to space installation. The objects are overpainted with white and coloured with earthy, natural and broken colours to give them depth and shades. Sometimes pearls, wooden pieces of branches or copper wire are integrated. Decomposed leaves and their structures form the emphasis for the topics of my work, also fissured mountain walls, landscape structures from bird perspective, windows of connections and branches - material stands for vegetable matter.
