Wowen tapestry by Barbro Nilsson

A framed tapestry designed by Barbro Nilsson and produced by Märta Måås-Fjätterström AB (MMF). The textile features a stylised branching motif set against a warm yellow ground, woven with small, scattered accents in muted contrasting colours. The composition is built from clear lines and repeated forms that create a calm, balanced surface. Mounted within a light-coloured frame, the tapestry has a contained presence that allows the woven structure and colour relationships to stand out clearly.
