Lønning is best known for her double-walled constructions and jaw-dropping complex-weaving processes, which she refers to as her “hairy technique.” She works extensively with graphic patterns, using both bold and subtle color schemes that provide the most beautiful art outcomes. She is well known for her use of the akebia vine, which she used to weave this piece. The vines are consistently thin and very strong, they are perfect for making baskets,” says Lønning.
