Voluminous abstract wall tapestry by Annet Gaaikema, 1973

Large wall Tapestry by Annet Gaaikema (1944), The Netherlands 1973. The tapestry shows beautiful crochet work made from hand woven structured threads, all skillfully and disciplinary done by hand. The tapestry stands out due to its open work versus volume, structure, straight lines versus organic lines, raw- and refined weaving patterns and the different layers over each other which creates a unique depth. The work is titled "Ondanks het regelmaat blijft het verschil“ which can be translated to; despite the regularity, the difference remains. The work is composed out of a mix of natural fibers such as Jute and Sisal in contrasting natural colored shades and is showing an interesting play of textures, deep reliefs, strong vertical lines, organic shapes and open fields. Signed and dated with the original tag at the backside. The work is in excellent original condition.
