For 15 years, industrial designer Mareike Lienau and her label Lyk Carpet have been intensively exploring the question: "What makes craftsmanship contemporary?" In doing so, she strives to bring traditional materials and techniques to life and to establish a meaningful dialog with the public. Her holistic approach aims to create an intercultural connection between people, materials and tradition. This approach extends beyond pure craftsmanship; the designer aims to stimulate the imagination and draw attention to the history of traditional techniques through her work by reinterpreting them. The objects she creates from wool are not only the result of craftsmanship, but also bear responsibility for their creation process.
By linking art and production in this way, she actively engages with the history and significance of traditional craftsmanship. Through her approach, Mareike Lienau is able to create objects that are not only the result of traditional craftsmanship, but also reflect the responsibility for their creation process. This close collaboration makes it possible to combine experience and expertise, resulting in innovative solutions that go beyond traditional ways of thinking. This collaborative approach not only forms the basis for her creative work, but also demonstrates how the engagement of different artisans helps to pave new paths in the design and interpretation of contemporary craftsmanship.
