"I find strength in alternating between the stringent and the more sensuous and organic."
- Berit Mogensen Lopez
With her studio situated in the vibrant Islands Brygge neighborhood of Copenhagen, Berit Mogensen Lopez has long been honing her craft across disciplines, industries, techniques and materials. The result is a catalogue of work that speaks to her inquisitive experimental approach to colour and form – never more evident than her latest collection for Paper Collective.
Trained as a textile designer, Lopez’ back catalogue includes fabrics and rugs, lamps and stoneware for some of Europe’s leading design companies. This multi-faceted approach to her craft has extended into her artwork; painting, drawing, tearing, smudging, playing – this is where she finds her creative freedom to keep producing new work that pushes her own design language.
"Within my work I have the opportunity to experiment with varying materials and techniques, which is reflected within the diversity of my expressions."
- Berit Mogensen Lopez
Years spent combining, separating and playing with colour are evident throughout Berit's artworks for Paper Collective. From rich layered textures to single lines, watercolours and almost bauhaus like compositions, her work has impressive variety but maintains a coherence through the quality of Berit's craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail.See all Berit's work for Paper Collective below:
