Dörte’s experimental practice deftly combines sustainable materials like recycled cotton, wool, clay, raffia, agave fiber, and assorted objects picked up on her travels. Using these elements, she pushes the boundaries of those materials to create distinctive new fiber-art objects and forms, drawing inspiration from architecture, contemporary design, and the natural world.

With a deeply ingrained ecological spirit, she seeks to craft enduring fine art objects, while nurturing her home grown and distinctive sense of aesthetics with resolute environmental consciousness.

Her aim is to create unique pieces that bring warmth, provoke conversation and invite reflection. On a multidisciplinary mission to beautify, engage, and inspire human connections through her work, Dörte’s practice is an open dialogue with her experiential world, and instinctually matching aesthetics with inhabited spaces.
