MichelleKingdomEmbroidered illustrations created by Los Angeles-based artist Michelle Kingdom, show states:

“My work explores psychological landscapes, illuminating thoughts left unspoken. I create tiny worlds in thread to capture elusive yet persistent inner voices. Decidedly miniature in scale, the scenes are densely embroidered into compressed compositions. Using thread as a sketching tool, beauty parallels melancholy as conventional stitches acquiesce to the expressive.”

MaxineSuttonArtwork by UK textile designer and fine artist, Maxine Sutton.

“My work continues to explore the interplay between screen-printed and embroidered textures, colour, mark, drawn and stitched lines. Often playing with imagery and ideas springing from our relationship with familiar domestic objects, everyday pastimes, the meaning of ‘home’ and home-making activities. Abstract and semi-figurative forms combined with pattern and texture present an ambiguous narrative.”
