Larissa Schepers is an artist based in Tilburg, the Netherlands. As Tilburg being a former textile city, Schepers focusses on using textile techniques to produce her works. With a fascination for beads she uses different techniques such as weaving, knitting and embroidery to portray her message. Living in a time area where the pace of time is meant to move as fast as possible, Schepers prefers to slow down. Her works are produced by hand, and she values the knowledge of the forgotten crafts. Her use of materials in combination with the variety of techniques, almost summon the viewer to touch the work. With this strength, the viewer touches the subject that Schepers wants to adres.
