Drawings with sewing machine on used printed sheets of fabric, 2004/05/06, six pieces
Used printed sheets of fabric are are taken as a background for new drawings. The already existing patina and the new reworking create a new multi effect to which the patina of the ground fabric is very important.
The drawings are made with the darning stitch of the sewing-machine. The result is a picture of spontaneous imprecise effect as it can happen by sketching an idea.
The large size "wall hangings" show a tension between the used printed sheets of fabric and the new stitched drawings, therefore creating a new draftsman ship. The interconnection of these two aspects shows a pictoral quality of breaking up and offering a suggestion that stimulates the imagination.
