Artist/Maker
Place of origin

This textile was designed by Lori Weitzner for Jack Lenor Larsen Incorporated, one of America's leading craft and commercial textile manufacturers. Entitled 'Intuition', it formed part of the 'Paradigm' Collection, which incorporated five archetypal symbols into the designs, crosses, spirals, circles, triangles and squares. Described as being suitable for 'residential and executive spaces', the collection denotes a move towards larger contract commisions rather than individual domestic homes.

Lori Weitzner's work has extended beyond textiles. She has designed for a range of companies, her commissions including packaging for Estee Lauder cosmetics and interiors for Lufthansa Airlines.
