\"Vandmanden\" (Aquarius) - wall hanging - Ida Winckler (IW) is an embroidery kit for a small wall hanging with a simple and distinctive motif. The embroidery shows a water bearer figure in blue shades, holding a jar or vessel from which water flows down.<\/p>\n
The motif is embroidered with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The finished wall hanging measures 12 x 12 cm and has a small, graphic and decorative expression.<\/p>\n
The motif shows a seated or slightly forward-leaning figure carrying a jar close to the body. From the jar, the water runs down in vertical lines. This gives the motif a clear narrative and makes the figure easy to read.<\/p>\n
The figure is embroidered in blue and dark blue shades. The dark outlines bring the motif together, while the lighter blue fields add variation and depth. The expression is simple, but includes fine details in the figure\u2019s face, clothing, legs and arm.<\/p>\n
The streams of water are placed on the left side of the motif. They form a calm vertical rhythm and create contrast to the more compact shape of the figure. At the bottom, the water gathers in a small blue field.<\/p>\n
The motif can be read as a small interpretation of the water bearer. This gives the wall hanging a symbolic character, where water, movement and figure merge in a small embroidered picture.<\/p>\n
The finished wall hanging measures 12 x 12 cm. The square format suits the compact structure of the motif and makes the embroidery easy to place in the home.<\/p>\n
\"Vandmanden\" (Aquarius) - wall hanging can hang on its own as a small textile picture. It can also form part of a collection with other small embroideries, zodiac motifs or graphic figures.<\/p>\n
The small format makes the project manageable. At the same time, you get a finished embroidery with a clear form and personal character. The motif works well on a narrow wall, by a bookcase, in a gallery wall or in a small corner where a simple embroidery can create a focal point.<\/p>\n
The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the blue shades a soft and matte expression that suits the simple form of the motif well.<\/p>\n
The fabric is Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The light linen background gives the motif air and highlights the blue stitches. The classic structure gives the wall hanging a light and clear expression.<\/p>\n
The combination of blue tones, light background and a distinct figure gives the embroidery a calm, yet striking character.<\/p>\n
Ida Winckler has created a small figure motif where few colours and clear lines carry the entire expression. The water bearer is simple in form, yet the motif still has both movement and narrative.<\/p>\n
Haandarbejdets Fremme is known for embroidery kits with fine materials and classic techniques. Here, Aquarius is transformed into a small wall hanging with graphic calm and needlework quality.<\/p>\n
