Hybrids

January 2007
25.5cm x 20.5cm x 2.5cm

Description

A one-page book: pens and reels of sewing thread on linen. Cover: canvas stretcher, lacy tablecloth, paint, machine stitching.

Themes, Comments and Storylines

Hybrids between writing and making: writing about textiles, making textiles. The hybridity of textile art: the white canvas of concept and fine art, the doily of textile craft. A balance so easily achieved in the making of an object, but fraud with so may obstacles in the making of a thesis. A representation of my research.
