Project

A master’s student in textile design at KASK in Ghent, Nora Hendrix incorporated the erosion on urban facades in a tapestry design. Using collages, she looked for the relationship between the open and closed character of these places and tried to represent this in a layered textile. In the TextielLab, she developed a tapestry measuring 170 x 200 cm composed of four layers. Each layer has a different image; by placing the transparent top layer loosely over the fabric, the image on the next layer becomes partially visible.
