Large-Scale Contemporary Wool Tapestry by Alfhild Külper

About the Item

A 7 foot wide hand tufted and embroidered tapestry. Titled "Dream Entrance" the piece evokes the tapestry of the Northern Renaissance, updating it with soft blues and greens. The work is packed with detail and meticulously hand-finished. It comes with a hanging template to make installation a breeze. About Alfhild Külper Swedish artist and designer Alfhild Külper aims to create physical representations of the soft spots in our minds. A graduate of the prestigious Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, she spent ten years as head of design at the avant garde fashion house Viktor & Rolf. Using a mix of traditional tufting techniques with 3D embroidery, Külper crafts tapestries, installations, and objects from leftover wool from the textile industries of India, Nepal and the Netherlands that serve as abstractions of memory and emotion, typically feelings of joy. The artist has shown at The Cristel Ballroom Gallery (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), De School (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), Lise Braun Galerie (St. Tropez, France), and Transnatural Gallery (Amsterdam, the Netherlands). Her work has been published in Financial Times, The Sunday Times, PIN-UP, Surface, Wired, and others. Külper lives and works in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
