ABOUT SIGNE EMDAL

Visual artist and Master Artisan Signe Emdal approaches her mediums as an intuitive act of embodying sensory memories, as well as her passion for proces, dialogue, indigenous cultures and their textiles, delicate light, structures, landscapes, art & cultural history, community building, ancient carpet and rug traditions, feminism, innovative social models and cosmos.

Signe likes to work in energy dialogue with spaces in beautiful natural light filled locations world wide, letting the spirit of the landscape, historic architecture or objects, take part in her sculptural proces to create site-specific works, tailored for the spaces. A sustainable direct method that keeps the proces personal and intimate.

What is energy dialogue? :

Signe´s site-specific artworks are built inside of the loom window without a planned grid or a sketch, but instead, fixed on a number of mathematical systems, while immersed in the energy of the location, her subject and the collective stream of the present moment. Energy dialogue is “communication through the senses, rather than through spoken or written language”.

~The loom window is where I store memories

Her sculptures and tapestries are fragments of ancient structures, combined by hand in a futuristic fluid process to create medium series. This sub-practice of building physical foundations for her works, is inspired by the Interstellar Medium (ISM) and rooted in the artist's technical 20 year experience in tracking, archiving and building structural expressions for a future world.

Movement, timelines and changes of scenery have a deep impact on her site-specific artworks, that aim to offer experiences of empowerment, flexibility and care towards a higher attention for the sensory body of all life.

~My body of work is my heart
