There has been a great deal of coverage lately about 'the Surveillance Society' so I used a pattern based on a camera for the black and white outside. A fractured circcumference to the yellow circle appeared accidentally so I kept this as it looked like the flares from the sun's corona. The planes are drones watching our every move and the text refers to the fact that conflicts between groups are as old as man.
Free machine embroidery was used to emphasise the design and I added an holographic medium (now, unfortunately, unobtainable) to add sparkle for a starry univerrse.
What an interesting piece, Jenny. Thanks for sharing the ideas behind it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great piece. So much meaning behind it. I can not take it all in and how you did it. Would love to see the piece in reality, it is so very complex.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Irene. You say that you would love to see the piece in reality. If you are coming to the CQ AGM next year might that be a possibilty? I would love to meet you anyway as we seem to have a similar approach to ideas.
DeleteWhat a superb piece-and such an interesting story behind it.
