Description
Primordial by Hilma af Klint, a Swedish artist and mystic whose paintings were amongst the first abstract art. A considerable body of her abstract work predates the first purely abstract compositions by Kandinsky. She belonged to a group called “The Five”, a circle of women who shared her belief in the importance of trying to make contact with the outer world. Her paintings, which sometimes resemble diagrams, were a visual representation of complex spiritual ideas. Kit includes an 11″ x 15″ on 14, 16 or 18 mesh mono deluxe needlepoint canvas and all the silk or silk/merino wool blend threads needed to complete. Please indicate your mesh and thread preference in the note section at checkout just before submit order. We will send the 14 mesh canvas and silk threads if you do not provide a preference. Available in alternate sizes.
