Fragments is a series exploring areas of conflict around the world by focusing on their textile heritage. Studying the embroidery techniques of India, Korea, Japan, Palestine and Ukraine, I have discovered their similarities as well as their unique and rich histories and sets of motifs. Vyshyvanka is an embroidery technique preserved by Ukrainian and Eastern Europeans. By combining it with ceramics which have been formed, then broken, it reflects a peoples' history and resilience in the face of continuing conflict. |
