mindcrFT11Mother of Pearl is a one-off handprinted, textile frieze.

Mother of Pearl represents a transformation of form and process over a continuous length of textile. It begins with freely composed colour fields in staggered layers and ends in a series of repetitions.

Mother of Pearl is a living surface with inspiration from the Italian Baroque. The conversation with the Baroque and its emphasis on creating lively and dynamic surfaces and depths is present as at delicate grid underneath the print.

Every medium has its own history and poetry, which is revealed in particular when the medium is pushed to its limits. Focus is the textile print in its unadorned form, which clearly reveals the touch of the hand. Mother of Pearl is printet exclusively with the colours red, yellow, blue and black.
