Assemblage of Collage with print and paint

h: 27 w: 35 d: 1 (cms).

This print and paint collage is part of a series based on reflection of the current wars, and mostly on the migration of people worldwide trying to find 'pathways' as means of escape. Certain bold shapes and lines began to emerge subconsciously as I began working on them. I stained Japanese washi paper with my homemade inks to stain and print and used stitching in some areas to contrast and ‘to draw’ the slightly broken fragile line formed by the repetitive, uniform machine stitches in order to represent the projectile of bullets from machine guns that impacts on lives and the loss or displacement of women and their craft as they escape from war zones.

£625 (As exhibited.)
