The Artist Creates Textile Moths with Wings Made of Vintage Tapestry Materials
Larysa Bernhardt has a unique artistic vision, as evident in the beautifully embroidered textile moths she creates.
“I create beautiful quiet companions for your home, observant but not at all judgmental… their silent presence is the magic every home needs. I always worked with beautiful fabrics and after years accumulated lots of pieces leftover from different projects, ends of bolts and fashion rejects. Linens and rich velvets, tapestries and ikats… felt like there still some life left in them…unrecognized potential. I make things using these misfit pieces, magical things, things with wings…or, at the very least, fins,” she says.
