Ann Cathrin November Høibo is an artist and sculptor based in Kristiansand, Norway. Her background is in weaving and she also has an extensive sculptural practice that includes constructing the fixtures for her textiles.
“I chose all the pink and red looks from the collection. I wanted to make a warm and very feminine environment in my studio, and try to translate that feeling into the work. I never make any sketches for my tapestries. They are based more on my shifting moods and drifting thoughts, from day to day. A bit like getting dressed.
Weaving is a slow process. I try to adapt and to be flexible, and not be too controlling with the different fabrics, as I blend them with the wool I normally use in my work.
With so much masculine pressure going on in the world, it's important to keep the heart soft. The Alexander McQueen looks inspire me in that way, the gentle and feminine inside with a harder cover for protection.
Hold hodet kaldt og hjerte varmt, as I like to say in Norwegian.”
Melted Heart: three-dimensional weave in tea rose satin and grain de poudre, apricot poly faille, ivory tulle, wool, cotton and rayon, Ann Cathrin November Høibo, 2022.
To illustrate the fact that creativity emerges from countless perspectives, Alexander McQueen invites a group of twelve artists to express their individual working practices inspired by the Autumn/Winter 2022 women’s pre-collection.
