Embroidered path.
Embroidered piece on a handmade paper created from recycled Icelandic vintage paper bobbins — the recycling idea came from , thank you for this beautiful suggestion.
The process had many steps in time. First, the casting form was made on a CNC milling machine. Then the old paper bobbins were recycled into pulp, and this pulp was cast into the form. After drying, the piece looked back at me and quietly asked for embroidery. Materials often talk to me — they ask for something, or they tell me what to do. Does anyone else feel this with their materials?
This is my first embroidery on paper. For this one, I wanted to keep it very discreet, in the same color as the paper, so you only notice it after half a second… a small, gentle surprise.
This piece is dear to me as it was made at my spare time out of work at that I miss very much 🤍
