Berit Engen
“1000 Jewish Tapestries”

Berit began weaving as a child in Norway and now practices this ancient craft in the centuries-old tradition of expounding on Jewish texts. Her ongoing project, “WEFT and DRASH – A Thousand Jewish Tapestries,” begun in 2007, consists to date of about 640 pieces. She compares her small-scale, linen-yarn tapestries to Japanese Haiku: formally constrained by a miniature size, imagistic and focused, yet allusive. Berit proudly combines different traditions from her life’s journey. In her presentation, she will discuss that journey and display about thirty of her series of Jewish tapestries woven with a variety of techniques and expressions.
