In Solveighs Textilkabinett you find an eclectic mixture of her own one-off art textiles, vintage items from her collections, materials from her studio for your own creative use as well as tactile and multi-sensory art objects. Enjoy your visit! Secret Art 5: Sweet Delights - Solveighs TextilkabinettArt usually aims to catch the eye, whether displayed in the gallery or at home, pictures on walls or sculptures in space. Secret Art does not call attention to itself, hides behind an unassuming or even shabby exterior, among the other paraphernalia of everyday life, on a shelf or desk, in a cupboard or a drawer. The owner can keep the secret or share it with others,
Secret Art can live in a sewing box, a jewellery box or a cutlery case, or wherever it can make itself unobtrusively at home, lying in wait to surprise. Secret Art cannot be caught by a quick glance nor contemplated from afar. It calls for closeness to be found and action to be revealed. Secret Art is sensory art, made for curious hands, eyes and minds. Sweet delights is a child’s sewing box containing not the tools to practice skills for adult life, but the memory of sweet delights we carry with us as we grow up. This playful box is a reminder of the simple pleasures of childhood, such as the sensory delight of chewing a face cloth in the bath, and a reminder of the enjoyment still to be found in the small things of life.
