In this tactile artwork, I've interwoven the rustic warmth of antique cotton and wool to embody the raw essence of primitivism. Each stitch carries the memory of bygone eras, creating an abstract play across the canvas. The rich textures invite touch, stirring an emotional connection with the fabric of time.
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.
