Claudy Jongstra X Hermès

Raw wool rugs with refined references to the classic Hermès silk scarves. The rugs showcase how natural materials can be incorporated into our daily lives through values and crafts passed down by generations of artisans. The installation features wool dyed with indigo, walnut, and logwood sustainably harvested from Farm of the World with recipes authentic to Dutch cultural heritage. The installation was displayed during Manifesta Biennal 12 in Hermès Palermo, Sicily, Italy, June - November 2018 in collaboration with Past Forward / Villa Valguarnera for Hermès exploring our shared commitment to the potential of natural, sustainable resources. 

Scarves: 90 x 90 cm | Rugs 1.4 x 2 m
