WELCOME TO MY BUBBLE!

_

I am a textile artist and fashion designer from Germany, currently based in Brooklyn, NY. My work is deeply inspired by traditional craft techniques such as crochet, knitting, and embroidery, which I reinterpret through a contemporary lens.

This approach results in a body of work I call BUBBLES, soft sculptures and soft paintings that invite tactile engagement. The haptic quality of my work is central as I want people to feel the urge to touch and to connect with the pieces.

Since 2014 I have been creating textile-based objects, but I have been exploring different crafts since I was a child, always knitting, crocheting and making things with my hands, trying to connect material storytelling with childhood memories and playful form. This is also inspired by my background working as a knitwear designer in luxury fashion, brands I worked for include Vivienne Westwood, Gucci and Marc Jacobs. I believe that all fashion should be unisex as it does not matter if clothes are made for men or women - the only thing important is that you feel good wearing them.

I’m currently open to commissions. Detailed CV and portfolio upon request. Objects and drawings are for sale, please feel free to contact me if interested :)
