Description
This work is a kind of collaboration with Leidungr, a swedish neofolk ambient project formed 2010.If you are into obscure folk stuff you should definitely check them out - I am sure that their debut album will be one of the best releases in 2011, certainly the best non-metal release. So far you can only check out their Youtube channel where you find some great examples of their musical art. [link]
This design is thought to become a part of their logo - that's the reason I put it into the designs and interfaces section.
Maybe some of you might think that this seems familiar and you are right. The design is based on a rather bad black and white picture I got from Leidungr, showing this sunwheel in an inappropriate angle. So my job was partly reconstruction and inventing the parts that weren't visible in the foto to get it into a frontal position.
We don't know the exact origin of the reference picture or the wooden sunwheel depicted so if anyone knows it - do not hesitate to let me know
However I assume it could be of german origin probably from the first half of the last century

Very beautiful and skilfully drawn.
I especially like the interweaving knot work around the outer wheel.
How long did it take you to reconstruct? I'm no expert, but the design seems very complicated for a sunwheel.
