Heart Tapestry
2023
Textiles, embroidery, mixed-media, glass beads
8.5 x 10in
This is a second small tapestry made with clothing tags and glass beads. The heart embroidery addresses the issues of violence and exploitation in the name of fashion, and meshes the often "cute" heart motif with a bleeding anatomical heart in order to juxtapose the way our garments are presented to us versus the disturbing reality of their production.
