MOUNTAIN, 'IT', VELVET JUNGLE


1. Ingegerd Torhamn, 1930
2. Karna Asker 1928
both: heavy, knotted short-pile carpets

Agneta Flock stuffed velvet forms to produce liana and jungles
in saturated and heavy colours towards the end of the sixties.
She also worked at that time with reclining and 'growing' forms in a lesser
format that formed part of organic plant shapes. The jungles seemed to divide the
room as they were hung from the ceiling.
