Abstract (English)

"Culture implies a transformation of nature, and Dwell embodies an evolutionary imprint of nature to culture, to nature and back to culture. Because nature provides raw material for cultural products, flax is the inspiration for the linen tablecloth. Damask linens, first produced in 1600s, became a sign of wealth and culture in European and North American homes; now, in this tablecloth, fine lines flow like swirling currents cascading down the side of the table. The damask pattern progresses into a waterfall reflecting the natural environment; whirlpools twist and turn into a series of markings that transform into a map, a cultural interpretation of nature." -- Publisher's website
