“Contact Lens” by Haruka Kojin

“I was on an express bus, looking at the pavement which passed my eyes at a high speed accelerated by the car engine. Looking still for some time, my vision automatically focused into a grainy surface of the pavement – appearing enlarged in my eyes.  I do not entirely rely on my visionary sense because my eyes are spheres having limited sensitivities. What if my eyes have rectangular pupils? Another world-view will then be my reality. Imagine how insects with facet-eye like flies or birds view the world? The birds can capture an ultraviolet ray invisible to human, so they must have their own version of reality unique to their visionary sense.” - Haruka Kojin

Spooky skeletal embroideries by Georgia-based artist Phaedra Hudson (a.k.a. BrerFlyCrafts)

Phaedra is a self-taught fiber artist with interests in anatomy and scientific diagrams. She home-schools her two daughters and science is the household favorite class.

“Our neighborhood does not have sidewalks or large yards for kids to play in. When our children were young, I spent a great deal of time sitting outside with other parents. I began embroidering as something relaxing to do while keeping an eye on the children. When thinking of subject matter, I was drawn to the biology diagrams and skeletons that always fascinated me. I embroider on white cotton so the background doesn’t distract the viewer from the subject matter, making them appear similar to posters. I want to encourage others to see the beauty in nature and biology and not to think of these subjects as gross or disgusting.”

Forget Me Not Skull Embroidery by CrimsonPins

[artfoli]

Slovakian textile artist, Terézia Krnáčová, decorated slices of bread with embroidery for her small ‘Everyday Bread’ series. A rather unique idea and not devoid of meaning. Krnáčová explains: “I love textile art and I can‘t live a day without it”.
