Andrea Klar - by Nigel A JAMES


The Gathering of Threads and the Pulling of Colour
Andrea Klar



The art of true weaving is the gathering of thoughts and putting them as one in a woven display of colourful reflection. And, world class weavers such as Andrea Klar have much to relate. And this is good so. For weaving is one of the finest of arts that exists! And, becoming one of the best, as Andrea Klar can confirm, requires more than just learning!

It is the seeing eye and the openness of feeling that count. They are essential for the inspiration that takes root before moving on into patterns and then into works. And, Andrea Klar's creativity is based mainly on the places she visits. And Baden, the small town near Vienna where she lives is perfect for travelling. The world is her oyster!

From England come her feelings of watery expression, from Scandinavia come the fine pastel shades of soft northern light, and from Holland come the fierce maritime storms. But, it is from Italy that her favourite colours come. They are the very strong colours of passionate life! And, it is colourful passion that shows most in her work!

And Andrea Klar's work is also the people she knows. Along the way she has managed to build up a string of connections that count very much in more than one way. People, too, are inspirational. Nature provides colour and form, it us who make up the threads!

And, that's why her work is so popular. It's a combination of human feeling and the natural swings of unpredictable changeable nature. In other words, all very real. And that which is real has a feeing of comfort!

And Andrea Klar's thread is set to continue. The art of true weaving is that which she's mastered, and, as long her ideas keep on coming, so will her work!

PS. The phrase – The world is your oyster means that you can achieve anything you want. It was coined (invented) by William Shakespeare, and first used in The Merry Wives of Windsor.
