Annemette Beck is a Danish textile designer that specializes in the art of weaving. This rug made from recycled inner tubes from bicycle wheels (you can see a red flat repair patch!) is a testament to her extraordinary skill transforming ordinary materials. Annemette strives to "remove what is unnecessary so what only is essential remains." The tubes are cut to length and transformed by her hands and loom into an alternating pattern of tight and wide bands. The ability to use various materials (such as newspaper and plastic bags) in the art of both weaving and knitting opens the doors of upcycling and repurposing. These traditional and practical skills using ones hands and simple machinery can create countless products of value, beauty, and durability. Annemette Beck is a master of the trade and gives inspiration to what is possible.
