Visual Work is a series of hand-woven tapestries made between 2005-2008. Each tapestry also has an individual title. The title Visual Work refers to the pieces being visual works of art and that the actual work/time spent on making the textiles is made visual by the material. Each thread tells you about how the work is constructed and built up piece by piece. Here work is a concept and the choice of material is what makes it visible. I started off doing the tapestries in a moment in time when methods and the actual process of making art was central to me. In other works I had captured the process by the use of video. By the tapestries I investigated a way to make single works of art, that by the material used, told the viewer how they where done.

From time to time I still make tapestries but due to the monotonically, boring, slow work of the hand viewing process, I really have to feel like doing it. Visual work is in some sense a reaction to the fact that higher speeds tend to beat lower. The tactile and gentle process of the material talks about the importance of time for reflection.

Approximately sizes 48X58 cm. These tapestries are from 2006.
