IndigoMadder

IndigoMadder is an exhibition commissioned by the Swedish Weaving Council. Svenska Vävakademin (the Swedish Weaving Academy) was asked to curate a show with contemporary weaving artists. Originally shown at the weaving fair in Halmstad in September 2022, this group exhibition will now be hosted by Fiberspace. The curators, Åsa Pärson and Linnea Blomgren, contacted 14 artists and invited them to four workshops and conversation about the pigments indigo and madder. The artists had to choose which materials they wanted to work with and then let their own practice meet the color scale and the process. The result is very beautiful, poetic and exciting. The participates are:

Katja Beckman
Estelle Bourdet
Lea Constan
Sara Elggren
Magnus Norpan Eriksson
Lisa Hagström
Gustaf Helsing
Miriam Nirstedt
Ulla Parkdal
Siri Pettersson
Johanna Söderquist
Anneli Tegelberg
