Tobie van Putten

Bloemenwereld

For a meeting space in an office building in Den Bosch, Tobie van Putten created a large Jacquard-knitted wall hanging using a double-knit technique, with five colours of organic cotton and wool yarns. The design plays with aesthetics, spatiality and symbolism: a lily at the front of the flower field represents transience, while the composition as a whole depicts a conversation between flowers. 

Van Putten made the drawing digitally, incorporating subtle gradations, shadow effects and colour transitions, which were carefully translated into the knit structures of the textile. Particular attention was given to sustainability and the natural appearance of the materials. The work was shown during the BENIT exhibition on 11 and 12 July 2025.
