Cadmium Ceres V

Original hand-painted silk wall hanging from the Ceres Collection.

Inspiration

Inspired by the agricultural landscape surrounding Ceres in rural Fife, the design explores the colours, layered fields and horizon lines that define the local landscape. Through abstraction and colour, the piece reflects a sense of place and the changing character of the countryside throughout the seasons.

Process

Each wall hanging is individually hand painted, allowing subtle variations in colour, mark-making and composition to emerge through the making process. The fluid nature of silk enhances the depth and movement of the design, making every piece unique.

Materials & Hanging

Hand painted on sandwashed spun silk.

The wall hanging is suspended from a concealed rod fixed at two points along the upper edge. This simple hanging method allows the fabric to hang naturally, revealing the character and movement of the silk while allowing its subtle lustre to catch and respond to changing light throughout the day.

Dimensions

61 cm (W) × 110 cm (H)

Edition

One-off original artwork.

Suitable for hallways, stairwells and larger interior spaces where a vertical format creates a strong focal point.

Care

The dyes used are sensitive to prolonged direct sunlight, as is common with most coloured textiles. To help preserve the vibrancy of the artwork, it is recommended that the piece is displayed away from direct sunlight.

Dust gently with a soft feather duster or clean, dry cloth as required.
