Mai-Li Helweg是一位常驻柏林的艺术家,她有着时装设计的背景。在亚历山大·麦昆开启职业生涯之后,她曾为香奈儿和路易威登等品牌从事纺织品开发工作。
她的创作涵盖绘画、纺织品和物件。她从在瑞士担任刺绣设计师时接触到的20世纪早期刺绣作品中汲取灵感,同时结合自身多元的文化背景,探索装饰作为一种文化语言。她运用织物和纸张,创作出卷轴般的表面,构想了一个由装饰和图案构成的虚构世界,作为记忆的载体。

Mai-Li Helweg is a Berlin-based artist with a background in fashion design. After beginning her career at Alexander McQueen, she worked on textile developments for houses including Chanel and Louis Vuitton.

Her practice spans painting, textiles, and objects. Drawing on early 20th-century embroideries encountered while working as an embroidery designer in Switzerland, as well as elements of her mixed heritage, she explores ornament as a cultural language. Working with fabric and paper, she creates scroll-like surfaces that imagine a fictional world consisting of ornament and decoration as memory.
