Through diligence and discipline I break down the incongruous and turn it into&nbsp;the understandable, then I use this new knowledge, to further develop what I find is most&nbsp;interesting: namely woven constructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In my studio I work with the hand-woven, as well as computer-controlled textiles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most of my work is with woven art objects, akin to sculptures. It is material compositions&nbsp;which appeals to me. When I&#8217;m not in my studio, I teach weaving and textile design. I have&nbsp;normal classes and also classes for adults with disabilities. This gives me an intimate&nbsp;understanding of the desire of humans to shape and create things with their hands. As such&nbsp;I have a clarity for our use of handcrafts and I therefore consider myself a contemporary&nbsp;craftsman.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have worked with unique projects such as decorations for public spaces in the&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Orkanen\u200b Library in Malm\u00f6, Sweden 2008. As well as church textiles which marks the&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">centennial celebrations of the Swedish Church in Copenhagen 2011. I have also worked as&nbsp;a freelance designer and design assistant in the textile industry. I have been invited and&nbsp;participated in a number of exhibitions both in Denmark, but also internationally in The USA, Sweden,&nbsp;Italy, Bratislava and France.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Educated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Design in 2007&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">with additional studies at NID National Institute of Design in Ahmedabad, India.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I focus on, and play with, the contrasts in compositions. I believe that contrasts are&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">necessary for human beings to orient themselves and therefore find their way in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sofia Hagstrom Moller \u2022 Nordic Textile Artist\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WDaRZ_ITG5w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Address: Vanl\u00f8se.
