RE: My art is a mess

in NeedleWorkMonday3 years ago

OMG, this is so much work for you to do, how I wish I can help with the cleaning of the upholstery, am sure it created quite a mess.

Now I feel lost about sewing, imagining how you sewed the hands, fingers and toes.

You made quite a huge dull and I kinda wonder what the open neck means.

I think I like the dull without the breast 😁

THank youuuu and yes the cleaning was no fun, these scraps were disbehaving, but I got it done yesterday. (I fear the gallery will look the same after the exhibition... full of upholstery scraps 😱)
I wondered the same with the neck. at first I wanted to construct a head, but then I found the body look so vulnerable and hurt without it, that I decided to go with the open neck. I have a knitted Wallhanging which will be arranged near the doll/body which I embroidered with the sentence "get this into your head" meaning all the messages which are forced into women.
And with the breast... I am with you, but against my own preference (and yours) I decided to attach them to make it easier for the audience to understand that the doll is female.
