Entertwine is a visual art collaboration between

Kristina Austi (LT/NO) and Karina N. Presttun (NO)

KRISTINA AUSTI and KARINA NØKLEBY PRESTTUN have had a close professional relationship since they met at Bergen Academy of Art and Design (now KMD).

The common ground between these two artists is their interest in textiles. The materials serve as the foundation for an idea, which in turn take new directions and flourish into its individuality and distinctiveness in the process.

Both artists employ digital instruments frequently: Kristina through her work with digital jacquard-weaves, characterised by complex woven-in designs, and Karina through her computerized laser-cutter, but in close dialogue with the textiles themselves.
