Technique
The miniature was made using the traditional kilim technique by one of the artists from the Tartaruga studio. The yarns used to make the weaving are scrapes of hand-dyed wool, which we use every day in our workshop to weave larger works. For the dyeing process, we used only natural plant dyes such as dried flowers, seeds, tree bark and plant roots. Every scrap of naturally dyed wool is valuable to us. That’s why we’ve been collecting them for years – they are perfect for weaving smaller forms.How to use
Fabrics made using naturally dyed yarns may tend to fade or change their shade over time if exposed to sunlight for long periods of time. We do not consider this as a disadvantage, because it it allows the work to symbolically mature with its owner and the place where it is located. Nevertheless, to avoid potential color fading, we recommend exposing the tapestry in a shaded place. Please notice that colours and details in reality may vary slightly. It’s due to natural-dyed yarns which may fade out or due to screen settings.- Tags: collectible design, handmade, textiles, weaving
Tartaruga is a small weaving studio founded in Łódź, Poland in 2017 by Jadzia Lenart and Wiktoria Podolec. They focus on handwoven contemporary kilims, rugs and wall hangings. All of our products are handmade with traditional tools and techniques. Most of the products are made of recycled yarns. Designs are inspired by the closest surrounding of the designers: nature and favourite objects, daily rituals or colors. Despite the designs are rather contemporary, they refer to the very rich kilim tradition and symbolism.
