The Graphic Series VIII by Linda Grüneberg is a homage to the art of weaving and its design principles, particularly inspired by the colors and forms of Bauhaus. The focus of her artistic exploration is the method of design.

Pattern paper, a tool used in traditional weaving for textile pattern design, serves as the basis for her creations. Grüneberg translates this grid into the linocut technique by preparing the printing block with a laser-cut, intricate grid structure.

Her works develop from simple forms and fundamental rules, inspired by historical examples such as Gunta Stölzl's tapestry 5 Chöre. The result is works whose geometric aesthetics and minimalist expression embrace the core ideas of Bauhaus textiles.

The patterns are created by the artist applying cut-out stencils precisely onto the pre-defined grid of the paper using a stippling brush or stamping technique. The finished graphics are neither representational nor figurative and do not convey direct emotions. They possess an autonomous, self-contained quality and aim to depict beauty and harmony.

Each individual sheet is handmade and unique.
