Language in Texture

Several Hmong tribes live in the north of Vietnam. You can recognize which tribe someone belongs to by the embroidery on the clothing. Visiting their villages on market days is a very colorful and interesting experience. Impressive handmade silver jewelry, very fine baskets in different sizes and for various purposes, colorful dresses and second-hand embroidery. It’s impossible not to be impressed.

The inspiration for Language in Texture comes from those markets. Some of the textures are a print of the beautiful embroidered fabrics. The colors of the glazes reference the colors the Flower Hmong people use for their batics.

The Skilled Hands series is a tribute to this beautiful craftsmanship.
