About the Item

‘Curious Caterpillar’ is a Jacquard woven tapestry by contemporary fiber artist Tjitske Storm. The rich colorful composition is composed of more than 200 elements of images. The digital images are cut-out, re-colored, adjusted and merged into a complex multi-layered digital artwork before translated to highly detailed Jacquard woven fabric. Various weaving techniques are implemented while keeping in mind the Jacquard weaving method built up from eight colors only. The yarns are made from (Mercerized) Cotton and NewLife® Polyester and the Jacquard weaving is done within a sustainable textile production. Limited Edition of 3 plus 1 A.P. The work is part of the series 'Human Nature’, inspired by the all-encompassing force of evolution and its emotional reciprocity. Woven stories wherein the rich natural world fluently intertwines with complex human behaviour. Born from her fascination for psychological, cultural and societal patterns, Tjitske explores the (mytho)logical roots of these behaviours within nature itself. A search for acceptable explanations for the mostly chaotic path as it happens. Abundant celebrations of blossoming beauty comprise contrasting realms while translating the fragility of life. The desired transition of current times is accentuated by shifting toxicity towards compassion, ego towards us, darkness towards light and fear towards love. In all of this, we are only human nature. *Standard option: stretcher frame and soft backing included *Additional option: hand-embroidery, hand-beading and stretcher frame/ soft backing - plus € 1250,- About the artist "My expressive style reflects a dynamic synergy of opposite worlds, visible through the combination of precisely aligned geometry and fluid organic shapes, detailed photographic assemblages and abstract illustrations, and the implementation of digital techniques and ancient fiber crafts. Through exploring, interchanging and harmonizing contradictions and perspectives, both conceptually and visually, I aim to underline the fragile equilibrium between the unity and the diversity of life."
