Skoven Del 2 – wall piece – Edith Hansen (EH)
Forest Part 2 is an atmospheric wall piece in which Edith Hansen works with the forest motif in an abstracted and graphic form. The tree trunks stand upright and stylised, while the sun appears as a clear circular element. The motif balances between nature and geometry, creating a calm and reflective expression.
The composition is built from planes and lines that meet in diagonal and horizontal sequences. The vertical tree trunks provide stability and rhythm, while the slanted ground planes introduce movement and direction. The interplay between firm shapes and gentle transitions gives the motif depth without heaviness.
The colour palette is subdued and carefully balanced. Greens, greys, and golden tones dominate the surface, while small floral fields add lightness and repetition. Danish Flower Thread lends the embroidery a matte, textile surface with calm, precise colours. The linen from Haandarbejdets Fremme provides a bright, stable ground that supports the graphic expression.
As a wall piece, Forest Part 2 fits naturally within Haandarbejdets Fremme’s tradition of modern embroidery with clear composition and material presence. It works well on its own but can also form part of a series with other landscape or abstract wall hangings. The format makes it easy to place in both private and more formal spaces.
For retailers, Forest Part 2 is a strong addition to assortments focused on modern design and Danish embroidery tradition. It appeals to customers seeking tranquil motifs with graphic clarity and high material quality. At the same time, it highlights Edith Hansen’s characteristic visual language and the materials from Haandarbejdets Fremme.
