Line Nilsen is a Norwegian artist, designer and hand weaver based in the UK. Her practice centers around craft, design and process, exploring material and colour to create contemporary work. Nilsen's woven art is an emotional response to the arctic landscape where she grew up, where the extreme absence and presence of light throughout the seasons have strong influence on mind and body.

Highly skilled in weaving on a hand loom, Nilsen's work is grounded in subtly complex and innovative weaves that use a variety of yarns including linen, cotton, wool and paper. Her processes include painting sections of the warp before weaving. Light, colour and texture is formed both on the surface of the canvas like a painting and within the weave itself, positioning the work somewhere between painting and weaving.

Nilsen studied at the University for the Creative Arts, graduating in 2009. She went on to further her woven skills, designing interior textiles for a worldwide customer base. Since 2016, she has been creating hand woven one-of-a-kind textile art, doing bespoke commission weavings, and working as a design consultant / collaborator from her Nottingham studio, effortlessly shifting between art and design expressed through the ancient craft of weaving. Nilsen's work has been exhibited in renowned galleries and at art fairs, such as Royal Academy of Arts, Beam Editions, London Craft Week, Collect Art Fair and London Art Fair. Her work is featured in private collections across Europe, Asia & the US.
