Design as Ritual
Art as Ecosystem
Surface as Threshold
Enter the work of Gwendolyn Hustvedt, where art becomes a method for listening—to the land, to myth, and to the layered textures of the unseen. Through textiles, symbols, and story, Subsurface Design Press offers a quiet invitation to connect with what lies beneath the surface and within ourselves.
Exploring Nature’s Unseen Depths Through Art
Subsurface Design Press illuminates what lies beneath—natural structures, ancestral symbols, and the quiet systems that sustain life. Through art, writing, and creative tools, we explore the unseen layers of ecology, history, and personal transformation. Our work invites a slower gaze and fosters connection with the subterranean, the sacred, and the symbolic.
Discover original textile artworks, insightful publications, and exclusive access to educational content that brings hidden ecosystems to life.
