This is my space for calm mind and body. For me it is life-giving to spend time behind the loom.

Working on two or three different projects at a time is an important part of my process. It allows me to step away from the work and revisit my ideas.
This loom is placed at the showroom in Aarhus and I only work on it on Tuesdays. I try to approach this process in an abstract way - almost like painting with threads. 🤍🌸

afholdte jeg tredje væve workshop
hos @DetVildeSpinderi i Nykøbing Sjælland, Odsherred.
Billederne er derfra.
Vi gør det igen:
⭐️ Lørdag d. 30. maj. 5 pladser tilbage.
En heldags-workshop hvor vi skal eksperimentere med traditionelle væve-teknikker og kombinere dem med bæredygtige lokale materialer fra Det Vilde Spinderi: rå uld og restgarn samt naturmaterialer.
Kurset henvender sig til nybegyndere og nysgerrige. Du vil blive guidet stille og roligt igennem processen.
Der bliver god tid til sansende fordybelse med arbejdende hænder.
Materialer og forplejning er inkluderet i prisen.

Intro from the article: “In a quiet corner of Denmark, Christina Christensen has traded the speed of the commercial design world for the slow, deliberate rhythm of the loom. Working only with natural and leftover materials, she weaves pieces of striking Nordic restraint that have already earned her a place at the Danish Biennale for Craft and Design. This is a story about finding your answer, one warp thread at a time.”
KOEL is a wonderful yarn crafts magazine dedicated to interior design. Founded by Irene Hoofs in 2016. In the beginning it was a physical magazine, now it is an e-publication.
Irene has done a beautiful feature interview that spans 32 pages – with lots of images, views on my approach and a small weaving tutorial in the end.
Go explore the many articles with skilled craftspeople.

Physicists have spent decades trying to unravel string theory. Christina figured it out on a secondhand loom in her living room in Odder, Denmark.
String Theory, Solved is a new KOEL Magazine weaving Story with Christina Christensen. Her birds woven in linen are so delicate they look like they might lift off the cloth. Newly published and waiting for you. @chrischris
