Loes Schepens is graphic designer and paperartist

For the designwork:  www.eindeloos.com 

From the view of her profession as a graphic designer, paper has always had a special interest by Loes. Early in her career she experimented with ‘strange’ industrial papers on the press. The printing offices with which she worked were forced to balance on the edge of technical possibilities. From this she learned more about the material itself, which resulted making her own papers. At first she only made sheets, from various kinds of materials. Today she uses only sustainable fibers like flax, hemp, cotton and kozo. Her artwork arises from her designerconcepts and -assignments, but also from her personal life. She makes small 3 dimensional objects and 2 dimensional work.
