By helping her grandfather who was a signmaker in Iceland, Ragnheiour Osp Siguroardottir was inspired to work creatively at an early age.
“There was always this strong sense of DIY and making things happen. This way of thinking inspired me to open my mind and see that it is possible to create anything.”After studies at the Iceland Academy of Arts and Cranbrook Academy of Arts,
Ragnheiour opened her own studio in Reykjavik. The Knot cushion was born in 2011, while she was making bear figures made of crocheted tubes.
“I wanted to try tying the tubes into knots and seeing the outcome. I found the idea of a big, soft knot intriguing in a fun kind of pop-arty way. I also like that when you take a first look at the cushion you might not really know what it is, and perhaps that is what draws you closer.”
