TAPIS FOLIE - A CONTEMPORARY TAPESTRY

Shouldn't art be, in the first place, something that is really pleasant to look at? Something you can wonder or mesmerize about, something you can't keep your eyes off of? For my 'Tapis Folie' wall tapestry collection I'm on a constant quest for old, original photographs that trigger and invite me to use as my canvas. I digitally edit them before transferring them to linen or satin, then paint and embellish the fabric. This post-painting on the image adds that extra touch of magic! The tapestry is stretched on wood and is finished with a very special trimming. My fun, my 'folie', lies exactly in adding these details.

All works are handmade, and each version is truly one of a kind.  Free work is available on this website unless indicated otherwise. Commissioned work? Let's discuss it! I'd love to work out your special wishes!

SEE BEYOND / ART IS FUN
The ‘See Beyond’ series is about bringing back people from long ago, to remind us of the beauty in every soul. The first impression of the outer appearance (colour, attitude, gender, looks), is softened by handpainted butterflies; symbol of beauty, vulnerability and transformation. See (and be seen) with different eyes!
