StudioGemakkerDanish textile designers Helle Gråbaek and Maria Kirk Mikkelsen (founder of Studio Gemakker) created these patterns with strips of painted paper entitled ‘Salute the Sketch’.

“We salute the sketch and that which is unfinished. The incomplete that arouses curiosity and opens for opportunities. Raw edges, the presence of humans and time. We nurture the experimental. A process for the unknown, a manifestation of rapid thinking and the spontaneous quest for the sublime.”
