Carola van Dyke is a contemporary textile and fibre artist whose medium is thread—used not just as a tool, but as a subject in itself. Her distinctive wall hangings and sculptural works are created with meticulously placed, floating stitches that explore the rich interplay of colour, texture, layering, and light.

At the heart of her practice lies a fascination with the delicate balance between the ephemeral and the permanent. Her work often focuses on capturing nature, whether blooming or decayed, through an intimate lens, honing in on its smallest details. This dramatic, investigative approach reveals the vulnerability and beauty of organic forms. Hanging threads respond subtly to air currents and nearby movement, lending the work a sense of vitality and constant transformation.
