DescriptionDescription: Painter Lasse Andréasson created pictures in textile by the mid-1960s, woven by textile artist Margareta Wilk. The sprawling works of art were made in an application technique with pieces of cloth embroidered on a loose weave or, like here, a nearly dissolved base fabric. Andréasson's textile images were a conscious protest against technical perfection.
