Two Peacocks

Product description

These hand-stitched samplers are made entirely of recycled textiles. They are in celebration of the divine feminine in an open-ended way. As a poet, I am interested in the ways in which image and text interact. I often wonder how does the image emerge? Hand sewing brings about a rhythm of its own in the making of this work. It is often meditative and this allows for a deeper connection to take place with that which wishes to be seen. Dream life, the quotidian and memory interact here. During the making of these samplers I documented the creative process. A hybrid memoir, HUDSON, has emerged from this.
