contemporary dyeing & textile art

PETRA KRÄUTNER

I'm a contemporary textile & dyeing artist from Vienna, fascinated by nature's endless repertoire of patterns.

Through the development of my own resist-dyeing techniques and an anarchistic approach, I explore new possibilities for textile arts, bringing the imagery of this ancient craft into the 21st century.

My practise is currently evolving from dressing bodies - through costume design, hand-dyed hosiery and selected vintage silks - towards dressing walls, entering the realm of fine art.
