Material Times

To regenerate local biodiversity. With Claudy Jongstra on biodynamic textile practice.

Claudy Jongstra, the Dutch artist and activist, is renowned worldwide for her wool felted textile artworks and architectural installations. In the countryside she began raising a flock of Drenthe Heath sheep and planting a biodynamic dyer's garden for her artworks. Valérie Záhonová visited Jongstra in her studio in Friesland to get to know more about her work, biodynamic farming and the new LOADS Collection – the interior textile and clothing brand.

Material Times – From design and architecture, through traditional crafts, to new technologies.
