This was an embroidery project for my materials exploration class. It was supposed to reflect something very personal that happened in our lives. I chose to make my eye because a lot of my personal experiences are moments that visually I never forget. This was machine embroidered on linen and cotton. The eyeball was attached separately to create a more 3d effect. The cotton was hand painted for both the green and the orange colors. I love embroidery, it has a very sketchy feeling, I feel like Im drawing on fabric with thread.
My heart is made of felt, stitched veins and arteries, pumping thread within. textiles live in my heart. I am Katherine Johana, I live in Canada but I am a proud Colombian. I love my country and all its wonderful culture. It all started with a felted little ball and it became much more. I am a crafts and design artist focusing on Textiles but experimenting and exploring other crafts.
