Sigrun L Shanko has great respect for the Icelandic rugged landscape and now it is her inspiration for ShankoRugs, where fluid forms shift with rich colours in the artist unique timeless hand tufted rugs.
The inspiration for the Sit on Iceland (SoI) collection is the need to have something soft, durable and damp resistant luxury to sit on while roaming in the wilderness of Iceland. When designing Sit on Iceland I looked closer at the earth I was standing on, the formation of moss, the jagged lava and other striking natural characters that make up the unique Icelandic landscape. The size is ca. 45cm in diameter.
