I am a freelance stylist, photographer and brand consultant

On the morning of the final day of my stay on the Faroe Islands, I managed to get in touch with the designer Rebekka á Fjallinum.
Over the week I was there, I had learnt that together with her father and siblings, she had recently opened a micro-spinnery in the village of Skopun on the island of Sanoy: Spinnaríið við ánna .fo

At the Faroe Islands – for bookazine 13 -
has hens, ducks and sheep and recently acquired four horses –

She also stages and takes photos of lambs and sheep and sells the pictures as posters, and she makes the beds and welcome guests to her and her husband’s bed & breakfast in connection with the farm.
I addition, she has a vegetable garden – using wool as a growing medium – and arranges guided tours for tourists, complete with coffee and cake or long-table dinners prepared from the farm’s own meat and vegetables in the family’s home.

Also from HÅNDVÆRK bookazine no. 13 – the wool issue –
From an article about RAGNHILD HJALMARSDÒTTIER

Even before Ragnhild graduated from the Royal Danish Academy, she won a commission for a decorative project in Tórshavn for a very ambitious work of school architecture designed by Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) in collaboration with the local architecture firm Fuglark.

The was inaugurated in 2018 and represents a merger of the upper-secondary school, business college and polytechnic in Tórshavn.
It offers 30 different educational programmes, mainly upper-secondary or vocational, including two textile training programmes, as well as a few higher education programmes and continuing training.
The school has about 1,500 students and a staff of 250.
The impressive five-storey building with a central, circular courtyard garden was designed to harmonize with the landscape around it.
Close to half of the young people in each year group leave the islands for education, and only some of them return. For that reason, local education is considered an important investment in the future society. Glasir is a manifestation of this ambition.

Ragnhild’s decoration of the two school auditoriums draw inspiration from Faroese rocks and cave walls and designed as a series of tapestries woven in Faroese sheep’s wool.
In addition to their decorative purpose, the tapestries also serve as noise-dampening curtains and as an adjustable sunshade.

Bookazine 13 is about wool – but it´s also about
Guðrið is at the potter’s wheel, throwing cups, when I visit Leirlist, her combined shop and studio in central Tórshavn.
As her skilled hands work, she talks about her material and aesthetic preferences, which lean towards the rustic – a reflection of the nature that she is a part of.
On my way out, I found this amazine plates on the shelf in the store.

Want to read about Guðrið and other skilled artisans in the Faroe Islands, in Norway, Sweden and Denmark?
The bookazine is available worldwide – also in Tórshavn ( in the very fine bookstore H.N. Jacobsens Bókahandil and in the store)

From the latest online article ( link in profile to online magazine)
It’s about gratitude and about the last of the late summer light, when I walked along streets and lanes, along lakes and through parks.
In Copenhagen’s King’s Garden, the perennial aster Lady in Black, known in Danish as ‘summer’s last farewell’, reminds me of an autumn day in 1982.
The day when I opened my first small shop in Odense.
I received so many flowers that day, including ‘summer’s last farewell’, which now every year sends me on a trip down memory lane to revisit myself in the form of a very young woman who went after her dream.

Seven years have passed since I began my research for the first issue of HÅNDVÆRK.

At the time, I thought – perhaps because I have previously run commercial enterprises – that the bookazine project would soon prove economically viable.
As I have discovered, however, that is not realistic – at least not if you insist on being thorough, uncompromising and independent.

This realization has forced me to reconsider my understanding of my role, and I have taken a couple of years to come round to accepting the idea of partially funding my work with grants.

Last year I submitted my first applications, and to my great joy, several of them have been successful.
Thanks to the Danish Arts Foundation, Beckett-Fonden, Lizzi og Mogens Staal Fonden, Bodil Pedersen Fonden and Dansk-Færøsk Kulturfond, which supported the publication of bookazine nr. 13.

Without your assistance too, this would not be possible.
