This tapestry is a semi-abstract two-dimensional drawing Rappard converted into a deep-layered tapestry at the Textile Lab in Tilburg. Titled Moving Brightness, Hidden Gem, the jacquard woven tapestry displays a variety of structures that appear to move in distinct directions. Although abstract, the shapes remind of clouds, landscapes, buildings, and sea, as if the work were a dense and compressed representation of elements. In the centre one can discover a hand-shaped gem. While preserving the suggestion of hand-painted strokes, the weaving process (jaquard weaving) emphasizes the sense of layeredness in the work. The black parts in the work were woven tighter than the coloured patches, creating a contrast in denseness. Also, the different textures of yarn add to this sense of layeredness. The whites bear a subtle pearly shimmer in them and the blue yarn is a soft and fuzzy one. Along the top and downside of the back of this work, two straps are sewn with openings in them. A metal bar can be pushed through them. The bar at the top can be attached to the wall with a few firm hooks. The second bar is added to make sure the tapestry hangs fine and straight. The size of this work is 158 x 255 cm. Photos by Lotte Stekelenburg.

Marisa Rappard (1979) is a Dutch drawing artist. She creates works on paper and also lets the dense stream of lines emerge from the drawing and enter the room in installations. Though the pencil has been her favourite material ever since she incessantly drew comics in her childhood lately she is also venturing to use ink and acrylics, making large scale drawings on paper as well as working directy onto the wall.
