Kleiner Herbst (Little Autumn)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n


Previewing the exhibition Bernat Klein : A Life in Colour<\/a> at the National Museum of Scotland (until 23rd April 2023) I was struck by how the textiles managed to evoke the Scottish landscape. Some shine with the verdant green soup of summer but most reminded me of autumn when the air is crisp and the colours are muted. Soft greens give way to the russet fallen leaves<\/a>, inky reflections in puddles and twilight mauve hills.<\/p>\n\n\n

Methven Woods – photographs with colour swatch background.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n


The photographs for this project were taken at Methven Woods, Perthshire on the 6th November 2022 exactly 100 years after Klein was born – where autumnal colour palettes similar to some of those used by Klein’s wool dying schemes can be found. The patterns of nature also influenced the selection of materials for the cover of the book to echo the famous Klein mohair and ribbon fabrics.<\/p>\n\n\n

Looking at the fashion images from the 1960s and 1970s in the exhibition brought to mind magazines passed down through the family and featuring various designs of knitwear and home sewing – the pages in the book are backed by several collaged pages of Superwife<\/em> (1977) – the sections used were “Cloth”, “Dye”, “Flooring”, “Herbs” and “Yarn” .

“Art is the imposing of a pattern on experience, and our aesthetic enjoyment is recognition of the pattern.”<\/em><\/p>\nAlfred North Whitehead
(British Philosopher and Mathematician, 1861-1947)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People often have a visual preference for symmetry and repetition and are frequently attracted to geometric shapes and patterns. There is something incredibly mesmerising and comforting about seeing a shape or an image repeated in a mathematical order. Artists recognise this and frequently use pattern for both structural and decorative purposes. Roman and Egyptian tile work, the wallpapers by Morris & Co., and the paintings of Victor Vasarely and Brigit Riley are all examples of where pattern has been employed to great effect. Upright Gallery frequently exhibits artworks that have pattern at their core. Continuing this theme, artist bookmakers were invited to submit artworks for the annual artist book exhibition held every December. The brief was simple \u2013 celebrate pattern in artist book form. Over 80 handmade books will be on display from 35 artists.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
