Drawing the Unexpected
Project Statement ‘Drawing the Unexpected’ explored the relationship between drawing and embroidery, using a diverse range of techniques to translate the drawn mark into stitched samples. The key focus was primarily on mark-making and the use of appropriate stitches to create such marks using a monotone palette with subtle introduction of colour. The work really came to life when I created drawings that were unexpected and spontaneous. The aesthetic element was surprising and developed through the process of translating the drawn marks using hand and machine embroidery techniques.
