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.
