Lena Rewell’s visi... Lena Rewell’s vision is enriched by places – the Archipelagos, the lake district of Sääksmäki in Finland and Lapland – and still life, like a flower petal or a fruit bowl. Her mohair wool pieces are loomed, woven and brushed by hand in Finland, adhering to a small-scale production process. It’s safe to say that her eye for art was written in the stars; her father was a textile engineer, and she recalls feeling captivated by colourful balls of wool when visiting him. So, it seemed like the natural next step when she centred her studies around art and textiles, designing with such keenness that her creations took shape before she even graduated. Today, her daughter Dita Eklund steers the ship, marking a new chapter for this story that dates back to the 1960s.
