Heden Remix – Mats Theselius
Confident in the strength of Märta Måås-Fjetterström's classic pattern Bruna Heden from 1931, the studio takes the liberty of inviting innovative thinking in connection with the Liljevalchs exhibition in 2009.
Four contemporary designers were invited to bring new color to the classic pattern. The groundbreaking rugs are called Heden Remix and are woven in an edition of five. All of the designers engage in a collegial and respectful dialogue with Märta Måås-Fjetterström's composition.
Mats Theselius retains Märta Måås-Fjetterström's colors, numbers them from 1 to 7, and allows a random generator to determine the order in which the weavers’ hands will grab the yarn blends and weave them into the warp, moving from right to left, from left to right, like a tractor plowing furrows in the earth, turning at the outer edge, and not stopping until the field is fully plowed.
Five Heden Remix – Mats Theselius rugs will be woven and can be made in almost any size. Chance will prevail with the colors, making each rug entirely unique. 3/5, 4/5 and 5/5 remain.
