1	Utfläkt på ditt golv (exposed on your floor) Gäfvert, Josefin January 2021 (has links) In this paper I have investigated the role of the weaver, from my own perspective as a weaver. I have discussed weaving in relation to function and painting, and how the weaving process and the collaboration with the loom have a great impact on what I create. I have found it difficult to believe in the future as a weaver, and with this project I wanted to find a meaning with weaving that I can lean on. All five weaves are woven on the same warp, I call it a warp family. Every weave is a try and a failure to weave a rug. Instead they have all turned into different characters, portraying my ongoing struggle with, and love for, the warp. I’ve come to the conclusion that for me the rug is a symbol for honesty in making, and that it’s function is to remind us about values that often are neglected. The visible process, the human presence, is then more important than aspects like functionality or perfection. weaving craft the rug weaving and painting hand weaving the meaning with craft material language the weaving process contemporary weaving vävning den handvävda mattan processbaserad konst vävprocess Arts Konst
