BEAUTY OF THE INSIGNIFICANT<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Piscaer\u2019s graduation project at the Design Academy Eindhoven established the foundation of her design practice. It involved a series of woolen rugs felted from the industrial leftover fine dust of a woolen bedsheet manufacturer in Texel. This manufacturer produces a significant amount of dust during blanket production, which, due to health regulations, must be carefully collected. While often considered worthless, this dust was repurposed as a material for felting. The series of \u201cBeauty of the insignificant\u201d consists of 2 types of rugs. First series is made in the washing machine. This thick felted rug has a maximum size of 2.2m \/ 2.6m. In the second series the rug is woven with the left over edges that are cut from the sides of the first series. There is no waste in the production of \u201cBeauty of the insignificant\u201d.

\u201cBeauty of the Insignificant\u201d received an honorable mention in the 2005 Dyson Sustainable Design Award. It has since been exhibited at DMY Berlin 2005, Gallery Phoebus in Rotterdam, Salone del Mobile Milan 2006 (as part of Studio Edelkoort\u2019s \u201cPost Mortem\u201d exhibition), the 2022 intergenerational Design Academy Eindhoven exhibition, and was also loaned to the Dutch Embassy in Berlin. The project has been featured in publications such as Cover Magazine and NRC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
