IBEN HØJ & JES FOMSGAARD

HEAVENLY

A series of installations made especially for the beautiful old building Toldboden. The large piece ‘Heavenly’ was knitted on hand-driven machines in the studio in Kerteminde – made up of three modules created in a round shape. The finest Italian ribbon yarn and high tech reflective threads were used and adds to the experience of something quite majestic. The red series – a dress ‘Like someone in Love’ and a floating installation ‘As though I had Wings’ – consist of a fine cviscose thread and a wool that shrinks adding mystique and a feeling of an extra dimension to these pieces.
