Touch-Graph Sculpture

Experimentation, research, unprecedented interpretation, technical knowledge, artisan practices and creative skills merge in Annie Verhoeven’s works with a strong personal vision that gives life to works that highlight the close relationship with the aesthetics of bobbin lace. This vision reworks traditional models and stylistic repertoires to open modern viewpoints. Thus Thread Art was born, which the artist herself says: “It is always based on the traditional bobbin technique, but has deviated so much from it that it is no longer recognized as a lace technique, which is why I gave it a new name” Annie mainly creates large-scale works that constitute a technical and personal challenge since they are entirely made by the hand of the artist alone, works inspired by current issues and in which mathematics is an integral part of the work and this is visible in the balanced relationship between the thread and the open space, in the dimensions and proportions between the various parts of which the work is composed.
