The story behind the work:
Artwork Details: Hand embroidery with embroidery thread sewn over a photographic slide print mounted on watercolour paper.
The Photograph: Features a original found photographic slide from the late 1960s/1970s. I love this image for its candid, everyday slice-of-life feeling capturing a quiet moment in a living room maybe testing the camera or the image could just be an accident.
The Design: The geometric embroidery pattern draws inspiration from mid-century and post-war textile design, echoing the iconic aesthetic of the era and the thread colours are pulled directly from the warm tones and rich nostalgia of the original photograph.
