Handwoven

by Dani Ortman

FIND ME IN THE SLOW AND RHYTHMIC BEAT OF MY HAND LOOM
WATCHING THE ENERGY OF A THOUGHT
TRANSFORM INTO THE TANGIBLE MANIFESTATION OF CLOTH

My handweaving is a heartfelt expression of the otherwise ineffable. For almost 20 years now, I have come to my loom to find my voice. I am inspired by the mystical becoming of a new experience, of something that feels unimaginable manifesting itself as tangible.

Every piece I weave is the culmination of thousands of hours dedicated to my craft. All of my patterns are self-designed, materials are carefully sourced natural fibres, and each textile is handwoven in my studio. I produce collections in small quantities and offer them 1-2 times per year.

It’s through the language of handweaving I find my voice.
