The rythm of weaving in Senegal
Johanna Bramble Creations
Die französische Weberin und Designerin Johanna Bramble
weiß um Stoffe und Tradition in ihrem senegalesischen Studio. Sie lebte und
arbeitete über mehrere Jahre in Dakar, Senegal. Sie weiß um Stoffcreationen, um
unzählige Texturen und Farben, gemacht aus Materialien, wie Metall, Plastik,
Leder, Glasperlen und dieser speziellen Faseroptik.
Die
Rückkehr zu den Wurzeln in ihrer Arbeit ist eine Würdigung der
komplizierten, doch sehr besonderen Praxis des traditionellen
senegalesischen Webens, auch wenn moderne Technik verfügbar wäre.
Die spezielle Struktur und Optik ihres handgefertigten Gewebes ist einzigartig, leicht anmutend und sehr schön lebendig.
Johanna Bramble gründete Johanna Bramble Creations. Sie
reist zwischen Dakar und Paris, produziert mit senegalesischen Weberinnen
Stoffe für Möbel, Decoration, Lampen und Assesories und mehr.
Sie ist eine der Designerinnen, die in Design Indabas Africa.Now
gelistet ist. Im letzten Durchlauf recherchierten Journalisten über Design und
Kreativität in Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria und der Elfenbeinküste.
Johanna Bramble im Interview: “I decided to respect the
traditional weaving because traditional Senegalese weaving is full of meaning.
The feeling is very important to me, so to interact between the feeling and the
colour... you can really make amazing things,” she says. “Because it’s
handmade, you can imagine anything and really make whatever you want. There is
an infinite way of weaving.”

„Entering another season without a head designer, Edun’s
CEO Julien Labat was wildly optimistic about the future, and from a first
glance at the happy Fall collection, it wasn’t difficult to see why. This
season, the brand’s elusive design collective drew inspiration for textures and
hues from the contemporary artist Mickalene Thomas and her eccentric,
multilayered photographs in the book Muse. As always, the clothes were crafted
in partnership with several different organizations throughout Africa,
including the Ethical Fashion Initiative in Burkina Faso and designer Carole
Nevin in South Africa. This season, Edun also initiated new partnerships with a
Kenyan weaving co-op and a company called Johanna Bramble Créations in
Senegal.“
