Made during Ós Residency at the Icelandic Textile Center – Blönduós (Iceland)
Woven on a Glimakra countermarch loom.
I chose this pattern because it reminded me of little soil paths gradually emerging from snow.
Different soils made their journey from Snaefellsnes and Hverir (Myvatn), after crushing them I used the pigments to paint colorful paths.
The installation is inspired to the Vatnsdaela Tapestry hosted at the Icelandic Textile Center, depicting an Icelandic saga.
