Birchington Breakwaters II
Disintegrating sea defences
on the North Kent Coast interpreted using a section of a tattered antique
Durham quilt. I find beauty in the marks
and textures of both structures, worn through exposure to the elements and
constant use.
Machine stitching from back
(perle threads in bobbin); raw-edged applique; painting on gessoed surface with application of acrylic paint washes and
impasto techniques
Antique hand-stitched quilt;
vintage and hand dyed fabrics; gesso and acrylic paints ( fluid and heavy
body); cotton threads.
