#whywemake
Creating with my hands is an absolute necessity for me - by making and selling woven textiles for everyday use I contribute my tiny share to preserve weaving as a traditional craft and cultural practice.I love to create slow textiles with a story as companions to everyday life - soft wool carpets, elegant shawls or throws to cuddle under. My logo symbolises a thread which has falle n under my loom and the first letter of my name.
I am a master in handweaving educated in Norway and Sweden, recently relocated to my country of origin, Switzerland. I was the lucky receiver of the Norwegian folk art grant for 2016 and 2020.
