Onda is a tapestry designed as a work for contemplation, with a delicate balance between its innovative character and its poetics. A proposal that seeks to integrate nature into a space, inviting the mind to reconnect and find serenity. Its drawing represents the undulations of waves or the earth, depending on its color range, in an abstract and very vibrant way.
The Onda collection is the first line of tapestries launched by GAN, developed in collaboration with Charlotte Lancelot. Its pieces are conceived from a completely artistic perspective, with which the designer has reinterpreted the popular needle painting technique seeking a much more pictorial effect than the traditional one.
This tapestry in blue colors is a piece that moves between art, design, and craftsmanship, being hand-embroidered using thick felt strands on large canvases. Its use as a tapestry and the technique employed allow for emphasizing its irregular edges. Likewise, its tapestry format is an allusion to the heritage of many cultures of the world, which generates an emotional bond by being a familiar object but, at the same time, innovative and contemporary.
This is the vertical format tapestry in blue tones from the Onda collection (80 x 140 cm). It is also available in two other sizes, 260 x 166 cm and 140 x 140 cm, as well as in brown tones.
Onda is a model from our Tapestries collection
The exploration of the plastic and expressive qualities of our designs in the field of rugs and modular collections for spaces has led us to approach the tapestry as a kind of natural evolution. With this new textile typology, we jump from the floor to the walls, expanding GAN's catalog toward proposals with a powerful artistic and volumetric character, while also taking advantage of their thermal and soundproofing capabilities for spaces.
