The Elements

This series of work uses the traditional colours for Fire (reds), Water (blues), Earth (greens and browns) and Air (white and blues) to create sculptural bowls.

To create my sculptural works I draw with thread using a domestic sewing machine and a fabric that dissolves in water. This unique process and fabric allows me to build up densely stitched structures that hold together once the base fabric is dissolved. By repeatedly stitching embroidery thread over itself I create intricate, three-dimensional forms that are representations of the patterns and structures found in nature.

  • Embroidery thread on soluble fabric
  • Approximately 15 cm across x 10 cm high
