Dulwich Picture Gallery
Wallace Sewell has designed scarves for the Dulwich Picture Gallery since 2014. Their inspiration is drawn from the gallery's latest exhibitions, from Helen Frankenthaler, to Willem van de Velde and Tirzah Garwood.
Hokusai (2026)
Designed for the Hokusai: Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji exhibition, this merino lambswool scarf uses colour and woven structures to translate Hokusai's original woodblock prints into woven textiles.
Hokusai's mark making inspired the details woven into this scarf design, while layered blocks of colour reflect the layered perspective of the prints. In many of his compositions the focal point sits off-centre, this has been reflected in the scarf design, shifting the visual weight towards one edge.
