THE WAY OUT CAN BE UP
Alfhild “Alfie” Külper creates textile landscapes that transform spaces into sanctuaries of comfort and healing. Shaped by an Anthroposophic education that emphasized childlike wonder, she works from her Amsterdam studio transforming salvaged wool into what she lovingly calls her “fuzzy friends.”
Through traditional tufting and 3D embroidery, Alfie creates immersive environments that suggest moss-covered forest floors one moment, vast cosmic nebulae the next. Drawing from textile traditions spanning India, Nepal, and the Netherlands, her work creates spaces where comfort becomes tangible.

Blue whispers climb through forgotten prayers, nine feet of textile salvation ascending toward celestial silence. Dreams hover in the space between earth and eternity, where threads become hymns and wool remembers the sky’s first breath.
This monumental wall tapestry transforms any space through Alfie’s meditative tufting and 3D embroidery techniques. Salvaged wool from textile traditions across India, Nepal, and the Netherlands finds new life in her Amsterdam studio, creating cascading blues and complementary colors that shift with natural light throughout the day.
