Camilla Bødker - Lovely Twist

‘Lovely Twist’ / 30x30 cm / Solid Oak with regular glas 

‘Lovely Twist’ is messy with style. It is made from scraps of bark paper, gold wire and ribbon. It is braided and beautifully put together into a work of art. It has been painted and varnished. It takes on a fantastic beautiful depth and makes you want to closely study all the details. The colors are natural, but there are some bright colors hidden here and there. The expression is soft, nice and different.

The frame is a box frame, which means that it has a nice depth between the glass and the back plate, which gives the paper clip space ‘to live’. The price is incl. the box frame and the artwork 1/1.  The beautiful frames produced in Denmark. I think that is important. The light is solid oak and the dark is dark oak veneer. Some of them have museum glass, others have regular glass fitted.

The materials I use are in my artwork are organic recycled paper, Cotton paper, Bark paper, Carson French cardboard and then I try to use old scraps of quality paper, in order to use the least amount of resources.

My name is Camilla Bødker and I have a BA in graphic design from the design school.

I love the ’perfect - imperfect’. I love when the edges are a little crooked and you can see the ’recycling’ in the paper. For me, it creates a perfect connection, both visually and emotionally. 

I make art. Art in paper. I experiment and work with different types of paper and finishing.
