Textile · Site-specific work

A charging station translated from technology and metal into a soft, hand-tufted sculpture.

The project takes a familiar object from Jimmi’s working life and changes its character completely. First, the shape of the charging station was built as a three-dimensional structure. The tufted surfaces were then fitted, trimmed and assembled around the form.

The process moves from the reverse side of the tufting and loose yarn ends to the finished soft surface with kerbstones, small flowers and handmade details. The contrast between technical infrastructure and textile makes the everyday object visible in a new way.

From tufted surfaces to a three-dimensional construction

About Haaland Studio

One person. Many expressions.

My name is Jimmi Haaland, and Haaland Studio is me. In my small Copenhagen studio, I do all the work myself — from the first idea and experiments with materials to the finished piece. There is no team of designers or production line behind the scenes. These are my hands painting, printing, shaping and building.

I work with paintings, Japanese nature prints, lamps and sculptural projects. For me, they are connected by a curiosity about materials, shapes and stories. Some ideas become a painting; others take shape in paper, yarn or light. I let the idea lead the way rather than stay with one particular technique.

Everything is made by hand, as individual works or small series — never mass-produced. The small differences and traces of the making are allowed to remain. And when you write to Haaland Studio, I am the one who replies.
