About MeTextural hanging made from dried rush and flax by one of the country's most innovative textile artists, Tadek Beutlich in 1972. In the early 1970s there was a renewed interest in wall hangings, often inspired by nature and taking natural materials. Beutlich also included found objects, such as the dried flax in this hanging, to create monogramatic works which exploit tones of colour and shade.
