‘Each piece telling its unique story, its own tale of woe.’
Introducing ‘Pantovola’ by Anouk de Groot, a textile art/dolls and soft sculptures artist from Scotland, who creates beauty out of primitive finds.
These fascinating designs are inspired by the magical world of adolescence. Recalling your nostalgic memories you once fantasized as a child along with the ‘wilderness of nature’, ‘remarkable folklore animals stories’, ‘myths’, ‘fairy tales’, ‘dreams of dusty attics full of secrets’.
Every single piece are hand stitched using natural cotton, hand painted with watercolors and natural coffee dye, dressed in delicate vintage and antique fabrics collected by Anouk herself from local thrift stores and markets with final touch up of embroidery.
‘Twin Sisters’
‘Anais’
‘Tailed Twin Sisters’
“I like to collect and use material with a history, used and discarded, with visible wear and tear, a story visible in its imperfections and decay…In my textile art and dolls the material I use is of great importance, as it has its own narrative already that has nothing to do with me or the piece I am creating.’ said Anouk.
—————————————————————————————————–
When I was a child, my life wasn’t that smooth and easy. I was born with severe asthma, I could rarely go to school, I wasn’t healthy enough to leave my bedroom. Having to stay at home with no friends, gradually draw me to live in my own imaginary world. I either read a lot of mystical stories and fairy tales or watched Pan’s Labyrinth, FairyTale: A True Story, A Little Princess, The Secret Garden repetitively day after day. Yes, I had these magical creatures created in my mind as companions. Though my body was suffering from the symptom but my mind was in harmony.
Throughout time, I lost touches of these feelings that I have left behind as I grew older, until the day I came across collection of dolls from Pantovola, every bit of magical memory are recoiling and becoming even more solid, specially when I got my hands on Hettie the hare by Anouk de Groot. I was totally enchanted.
