Silvia Wald, textile artist from Berlin
Silvia Wald works with fabric, needle, and a theme that has accompanied her since childhood: food. Growing up in rural Brandenburg amidst gardens, farm slaughterhouses, and fishing ponds, meat was a natural part of everyday life. She herself decided against it early on and has been vegetarian since the 1990s.
Her textile product world is deeply rooted in these memories. Together, the sausage pillows, hams, and pretzels create a visual representation of the German regional food culture in which she grew up. From there, she explores food cultures, makes them visible, and repeatedly encounters the traditions behind what ends up on our plates.
Thus, her objects, soft, funny and serious at the same time, pose a question to everyone who looks at them: What food culture did you grow up with? Since 2008, she has been developing individual pieces, editions and collaborations with other artists in her studio in Berlin-Friedrichshain.
Popcorn pillow, the cuddly pillow that never runs out
Our popcorn cushion brings the joy of a movie night right to your sofa. Popcorn is simply fun, even when you're making it: when the kernels start popping in the pan, it becomes a little event every time. That's exactly the feeling captured in our cuddly cushion, handcrafted from off-white plush fabric with dark yellow appliqués and light yellow embroidery.
Our team
Aufschnitt is a small team with great curiosity. Young, creative minds from different countries and with diverse talents come together here – and from this encounter, the ideas are born that ultimately end up as pillows for you.
We are a small team and work on a project basis with freelancers from different disciplines. This allows us to bring together exactly the perspectives that are needed for each project.
