In the Chiaroscuro collection, Calle Henzel reimagines the classical artistic concept of light and shadow, translating the dramatic contrasts of this age-old technique into innovative, contemporary rug design. The term chiaroscuro, meaning "light-dark" in Italian, originates from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, where it was used to create depth and emotional intensity through strong contrasts between light and dark. Henzel brings this timeless approach to life by juxtaposing bold black and white tones with nuanced taupe, adding depth, balance, and sculptural presence to each rug. Crafted from premium materials such as semi-worsted wool, silk, mohair, and linen, the rugs feature subtle hand-carved variations in height, creating tactile textures that add dimension and visual interest. The textured surfaces enhance the interplay of light and shadow, reinforcing the dramatic contrasts central to the Chiaroscuro theme. Henzel’s process incorporates these varied surface qualities, redefining traditional rug-making methods and adding richness and complexity to the designs. This approach evokes the emotional power of Caravaggio’s light-filled compositions, while also drawing parallels to the refined contrasts found in the photography of Irving Penn. Calle Henzel’s work has been exhibited at prestigious venues such as MOCA, the Katonah Museum of Art, the Boca Raton Museum of Art, Rossana Orlandi Gallery, and The Goss-Michael Foundation, solidifying his position as a visionary at the intersection of art and design.
