Kelp wall piece

This large handwoven fabric was created from luminaria, a type of algae also referred to as kelp. Violaine Buet designed the piece and worked on the preparation of the kelp that she cut, treated and coloured with natural dyes. The final fabric piece was handwoven by David de Roscoat. The piece was presented to the Fondation Bettencourt as a contender for their annual prize in the dialogue category.
