Hedwige Jacobs

Originally from the Netherlands, Hedwige Jacobs draws inspiration from the box-like houses and landscape of her current residence in Houston. Her drawings also address themes like overcrowding and human interaction. From these themes intricate narratives are created, which evoke intriguing questions about the idea of home.

I also love the use of woven interlaces to create connectivity and a literal thread of life. Believe me...my textile loving heart is beating fast! Simple, yet truly inspiring work - check out more here.
