MONIQUE VAN NIEUWLAND<br />
Monique van Nieuwland learned to weave in the Netherlands and bought her first<br />
loom in the late 70s while she was working on a commission weaving fabrics for<br />
curtains and tablecloths. After migrating to Australia in 1982, Monique studied<br />
Visual Arts-Textiles at the Australian National University School of Art and has<br />
completed her masters degree.<br />
Monique exhibits regularly, nationally and internationally. Her work has been<br />
selected three times for the Tamworth Contemporary Textiles (biennial and triennial)<br />
exhibition and she is representing Australia at the 15th International Triennial of<br />
Tapestry in Lodz, Poland.<br />
“This work is the beginning of a new body of work: Jacquard woven works that<br />
explore the serendipity of life and our ephemeral existence in this world. I took a<br />
photograph of a quince from our tree. I drew into the image and translated it into<br />
in weave structures before weaving it on a Jacquard loom. As I keep working on this<br />
series I may submit a different work that suits the Utopia exhibition better.”<br />
Monique Van Nieuwland, Cydonia - Fructus<br />
Amoris, 2019, handwoven jacquard, silk warp,<br />
cotton weft, 25 x 36cm<br />
