Dazed & Confused-redefine folkloric textiles

I have created a hand-crafted folklore collection for the future, by combining time-honoured Swedish tradition, with contemporary East London flavour. I appropriate classic Scandinavian design symbols and motifs such as lego, cross-stitch and dalahorses. I redesign them by mixing old wall hangings and tablecloths with shiny plastic materials, strong colours and oversized accessories, so the feeling of past and future works together. My challenge has been to build up different layers allowing people to add, subtract, mix and match the different pieces according to their own personal taste. ‘More is More’- it is a game between old and new the customary and the extraordinary. It is a new generation fashion puzzle
