Woven Angelica (in red tones)

this woven painting has come forth from a love for textile and a curiosity of what my original painting would do, how the layers would show, what the extra dimension of yarn will bring to the work. In 2018 I got the chance to translate 5 paintings into woven paintings. now, 4 years later I developed 2 new woven paintings. inspired by the ever beautiful plant angelica. known in dutch as engelwortel.
the linen yarn really has a special effect hidden in itself.
when the weaving is shown in dimmed light, it will hold back, be a quiet precense in the room but when even the smallest ray of light hits the surface, the linen suddenly shimmers and shines and reveals all the tones the weaving holds.
