Waterloop - For water, by water and about water

Vissen (Fish), a textile print as part of Maarten Kolk & Guus Kusters' Waterloop series

Maarten Kolk & Guus Kusters, two designers based in the Netherlands, worked with the Audax Textielmuseum Tilburg to create a range of textile products focusing on the valuable resource of water and its use in the textile industry.

As a starting point to their research, Kolk and Kusters visited Iceland to photograph its natural wonders of glaciers, geysers, waterfalls and fjords and used this imagery to create a range of printed table cloths, tea towels and rugs entitled the "Waterloop" (Flow of water) series.
