Weaving 07 expresses Zedig’s own invented technique of weaving floats, she calls these “Sindi”. In this piece, she worked with very long floats in order for them to be able to gently drape and create visual movement in the work.

All of the natural dyed elements come from indigo dye, achieved by two to three dips in the indigo vat. Indigo is an exclusive pigment with rich history, to maintain a healthy fermented indigo plant vat, one needs to constantly feed it. The emerald green is indigo dye with the addition of Five-Leaved Chaste Tree. The wild harvested tussar silk she has kept in its raw and natural color state.

Lina Zedig is a Swedish fiber artist and textile designer. Her work has its origin in Swedish fiber art and textile craft traditions and is heavily influenced by the folk art of Japan and India – places to which she has traveled extensively and lived throughout the years. The natural world is central to her practice both in the development of natural dyes as well as in the expression of rhythmic patterns found in the nature.

Zedig has a strong commitment to sustainability and considers every element that flows into and out of her textiles. Her carefully constructed collections reflects her innate passion for fibers. Her work offers an homage to the process and art of weaving, and each piece embodies a pure expression of process.
