Textile Art Between Nature and Critique

​

Embroidery, tufting, weaving – Claudia Schwarz uses traditional textile techniques to transform used fabrics, paper, and yarn into complex, relief-like visual spaces. Her work grows organically across canvases and objects, evoking moss, roots, or nerve structures – inspired by the natural cycle of growth and decay.

​

What appears fragile is meticulously crafted: each textile structure speaks of connection, destruction, and transformation. Trained in fashion design, Schwarz deliberately turned away from the fast fashion industry – creating new, critical forms of textile expression through needle, thread, and artistic reflection.
