About
TurkRedGhost 3
A tapestry of emotion and time, together with the rawness of the abstract with the soul of primitivism. Stitch on antique cotton with vintage hues telling tales of yesteryear. It's not just textile; it's a piece of history, a patchwork of stories untold, inviting you to feel the pulse of tradition and the warmth of nostalgia.
Subject
The antique textiles I work with, sometimes, seem to yell at me, but mostly, they lay silent, as I make my own marks alongside, others gone before. Ragged bits, old and new stitching, tracing marks left behind on old textiles are a reminder, of a time when women, had many obligations and few choices. I feel comfortable, as I stitch, tear, dye and reinforce the fragmented pieces. Somehow, I hope, in a small way, by reclaiming and reworking the textiles, I can give a voice to those women.
Med. 1800's Antique textiles, ink, acrylic gesso, thread, sealer, on gallery stretched canvas. All hand sewn. All sealed for protection. (Unframed) Ready to hang.
Size H 25cm x W 20cm x D 4cm
