Thread Painting
… and then there was Covid
25 375 Kč
Thread Painting is the continuous movement of fabric under the needle of a sewing machine. Many of his pieces require 10-20 miles of thread. Using 9 values of grey thread tries to recreate drawing from his sculpture notebooks.
“The grid is a metaphor for order and the rational, the thread painting aspect represents chaos in this piece. Everything I/we thought stable was (unknown to us) already in total disarray, ‘… and then came Covid,’ and the bottom dropped out.” Bob Mosier

“This piece of denim reminds me of well-worn clothing and quilts that are mended and maintained as I pray for new healing skills this year. After accumulating thread leaders and bent needles each year, as well as sacrificing some pins I inherited from my grandmother’s pin cushions and sewing drawers, I thank my tools and replace my needles.” Chandra Wu
