Tip o' the hat to all who "got it" -- meaning: those who acoustically held through the 10-minute madness ... it was meant to convey all the "insanity" that goes into fabricating such a work of multigenerationally sustainable*/durable art. PS * sustainable in the sense of stil mattering when the current hype has passed ...
I am a hand weaver, and I have just gotten access to a large tapestry loom for the first time. Now instead of being intimidated I am excited! This video really caught the very mindful 'timeless time' of weaving.(As well as the utter satisfaction of any OCD tendencies the weaver should have!) Thank you!
I am so very moved by the dedication of Mr. Haspel. And for someone who only searched because she wanted to know what weaving a tapestry entailed, I feel I'm already in love with the art.
pffttt...I thought I was a good weaver until I saw his finished product...makes my weavings look like the product of a cat and a ball of yarn...This is beautiful
The music was specially composed for the video (i.e. not as part of any unrelated album) -- & recorded on live instruments in the space for which the tapestry was designed.
KnitOutTheJams Me too! Are you a weaver? :-) I want to weave the old tapestry's of the 18th century for my walls, in a stone addition to the house. I'm a weaver by trade.
Wow, I can't help but respect Mr. Haspel for not only making this tapestry, but continuing to make them! I thought my single-crochet scarf was slow, but this would be murder for my patience. There's no way I could sit still long enough to make any progress on a tapestry without starting to twitch. Regardless of my impatience, this is a truly beautiful art form, and I wish the creator the best in preserving and continuing the art of tapestry weaving!
Wow! Its so stunning ❤! I have goosebumps! Incredible truly incredible.. the skill. I think you have just inspired me to learn this.. You are a master Sir! 👏🏼
I am very inspired by the work of Noreen Crone Findlay. She was showing the different ways of making those bobbin things. I was wondering how tapestry was done. I myself as a fabric artist....have NEVER watched this art made before. This IS truely AMAZING! I would sooooo love to be in that room watching this artist!
By George, she's/he's got it! IOW the borderline unbearability of the audio track was designed to convey a sense of the incredibly long, borderline mind-numbing process of creating such a "nice" tapestry (that will last for generations to come, time is such a relative dimension). Thank you for the feedback -- Margit
I've watched this many, many times over the years. As a non weaving observer, the music, the order in the room, and the weaving are calming, just sublime. I appreciate so much the work you put into making this video.
Thanks for sharing! Amazing! Most people wouldnt appreciate it. Im about to start one called ON THE WALLABY TRACK, by Australian painter, Frederick MacCubbin.., its the 1/2 size of our dining table..I thought that , that was big. Thanks for the encouragement to gave me! Marietta, Brisbane Australia
Lo he disfrutado plenamente. Felicito al artesano y tambien doy las gracias a la persoan queha subio este video. Me ha permitido saber mas de este arte que intento descrubrir. Saludos desde Cádiz....AndaluCía....
I like the dissonant element of the soundtrack...it's fabulous...not so keen on the monotonous guitar though! I've started weaving, thanks for posting.
I didn't find the video or the audio unbearable in any way. I was surprised to find so much physicality and spontaneity in the weaving process, and the percussion added an element of suspense to the repetitive guitar, perhaps suggesting potential accidents or unexpected results in the tapestry. Congratulations to both of you.
im sure he didn't started like this, this is advanced even for me to even try to do it, i would suggest to find and take a tapestry class they'll provide you with all the material if you like it you can keep on your own later or start by making small rugs with homemade tools and if you like it keep buying and adding more professional tools and different techniques.
The music was edgey, not calming, and I had to put the volume down, but the focus and dedication of the tapestry artist and his work is beautiful to watch and the results are magnificent - the details gorgeous. Thank you for making the video.
To get really straight vertical lines you have to do a slit technique. You are bringing two yarns towards each other to a point and then turning back in the other direction. This leaves a slit between the two colors that must be sewn up either as you are weaving or afterwards. This is what he is sewing shut. The sewing is invisible once it is done.
amazing work, love how you captured the technique. But the music is horrible and scary - doesn't fit the topic at all. Had to mute to finish watching your lovely video.

I weave tapestries, but never on this scale or with this amount of detail. Just gorgeous. Truly gifted. I'm inspired! Thank you for sharing.
I am so inspired. His process takes my breath away.
Amazing craft.

Beautiful.. I could never do something this large.. I am the type that will stay up for days until my project is complete..
This is unbelievably fabulous. There's nothing more I love than watching process videos precisely like this. Thank you so much.

My curiosity lead me to click on this link. But, stayed for the music..... 10 years ago......

hypnotizing...that's the best word i could find for this video...lovely...calming...
truly magical and inspiring. signed... a long time scarf and rug weaver but a beginning tapestry artist. Loved the sound track. Perfect.
I like the Music... It was in sync with the weaving of a beautiful and well made piece of art!! A Lovely Juxtaposition!
Must be so satisfying to see the finished work.
Well done Félix.
Fantastic and very inspiring! Thank you very much for sharing :-)
I stumbled upon this video - what an amazing piece of work! I had no idea what went into weaving a tapestry. So beautiful!
Wow! Its so stunning ❤! I have goosebumps! Incredible truly incredible.. the skill. I think you have just inspired me to learn this.. You are a master Sir! 👏🏼
This is great video and the resulting tapestry is so good! It was so interesting to see how the work came together.
Time well spent. It's absolutely, amazingly beautiful. Worthy of being admired for many generations. Very talented artist.
Thank you for this marvelous video! It's a wonderful way to show the world how involved tapestry weaving is!
just read The Lady and the Unicorn by Tracy Chevalier. Thanks for shedding light on the process that the book was talking about!

I myself as a fabric artist....have NEVER watched this art made before. This IS truely AMAZING! I would sooooo love to be in that room watching this artist!
I just watched this person making that for 10 minutes and I still have no clue how he did it...
I loved the music. Very calming.
Really Cool Video Want To See More Of These Kind.
I do not know what makes your soul to do this, but I'm very happy it does! I am very moved!
This is AMAZINGLY gorgeous!!!
Gorgeous, amazing, stunning! Thanks for show us your step by step!
Brilliant, great to see a tapestry of such quality.
Thank you.... Beautiful work and inspirational video 💖💖💖
A wonderful work of art. It's beautiful.
Audiovisual challenge to whomever's up for it: Hang in there to the end & then please drop off a sign of your perception (of it). Thanks in advance!
Serious work good man. Prosper.

Great work, you are a artist
Truly amazing. You are one patient and creative man!
The weaving is so beautiful and soothing to watch, but the music is discordant and painful, sorry. Muted it and enjoyed the visuals.
Yeah, what kind of music do you like...???
Absolutely Magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely incredible!
So beautiful. 😍

¡Maravilloso! ¡Esplendido! ¡Increíblemente precioso tapiz! Siento envidia de la sana, me encantaría ser capaz de hacer uno así.
You did a good job, love it!
Using a Bosch drill to spin your bobbin = Awesome!
I Like His Art Work. Want To. See More.
Truly phenomenonal artistry. Though I have to be honest I had to mute the video as the music was awful, but his talent is awe inspiring. Xx
WOW! I love it!
So beautiful
very very beautiful!
This is an amazing masterpiece. I'm just starting off and can only dream of doing this
I like the dissonant element of the soundtrack...it's fabulous...not so keen on the monotonous guitar though! I've started weaving, thanks for posting.
beautiful
I wish I was THAT skilled
Bravissimo meraviglioso
Genial- Gracias..
wasn't really interested in tapestry weaving... then i saw this! do you dye your own yarn? where did you buy the yarn?
This is breathetaking! Could you tell me, if this is the original Gobelin technique, please?
Yo imagine pessing up after you are dang near done.
I didn't find the video or the audio unbearable in any way. I was surprised to find so much physicality and spontaneity in the weaving process, and the percussion added an element of suspense to the repetitive guitar, perhaps suggesting potential accidents or unexpected results in the tapestry. Congratulations to both of you.
woww! amazing.
Wow. Impressive.
Uma obra de arte e paciência maravilhosa!
the one thing they neglected to show was how he treated the warp ends!!! Dangit
OMG you are amazing i would love to learn how to do this fantaic
This is amazing! Anyone knows what type of loom this is?
I know nothing about weaving. What are the little wooden things connected to the string?
I feel like this music would play if I was getting murdered
I need to learn more techniques on tapestry. Professional picture sensory (impressionist art tapestry weaving. Rugs also you tube vedios
Thank you
Amazing
I would like to give this a try.. but I aint going to spend a lot on money on something I may not like doing for a long time.
im sure he didn't started like this, this is advanced even for me to even try to do it, i would suggest to find and take a tapestry class they'll provide you with all the material if you like it you can keep on your own later or start by making small rugs with homemade tools and if you like it keep buying and adding more professional tools and different techniques.
Wow!!!
Wow!
great video but I had to turn down the sound. it was murder on my ears.
Is the artist weaving from the front or back of the tapestry ?
👍👏
Combien de temps vous mettez pour le finir qu'elle patience 👍👌😀
why do you change sheds if all in woven manually?
The artist is Felix Haspel. www.haspel.at
how much does a project like this cost?
WOW
An other nice video
Wow
Amazing!,
The music was edgey, not calming, and I had to put the volume down, but the focus and dedication of the tapestry artist and his work is beautiful to watch and the results are magnificent - the details gorgeous. Thank you for making the video.
ask your favorite weaver ;-}
Why is he sewing at around 7:40? What is it he's doing?
To get really straight vertical lines you have to do a slit technique. You are bringing two yarns towards each other to a point and then turning back in the other direction. This leaves a slit between the two colors that must be sewn up either as you are weaving or afterwards. This is what he is sewing shut. The sewing is invisible once it is done.
I hope he charged nothing less than £20 000 for this tapestry!
Can do without the music.......but WOW!!!!!! I want to do this!!!!!
How do I contact Mr. Felix Haspel?
www.haspel.at
how many people are watching this for school
Some pretty dissonant music but other than that, gorgeous art
The tapestry is nice but 10 minutes of listening to a guy play an E chord on the guitar is almost unbearable.
Fantastic weaving artist but the music is so awful and old fashion!
amazing work, love how you captured the technique. But the music is horrible and scary - doesn't fit the topic at all. Had to mute to finish watching your lovely video.
