The Allotment Series

Debut at Delamore Art Early Summer Exhibition 2024.

Each of the four pieces in the Allotment Series celebrates the spirit of a particular vegetable. The vintage and reclaimed fabrics used in the hand-embroidered appliqué work also tell their own, more human stories, immortalizing a grandmother’s silk kimono, a magician’s purse, a humble handkerchief.

The linen backgrounds are four quarters of an unfinished Yugoslavian table cloth donated by the late and much-loved Mirjana Novakovic.

Provenance, legacy, memories and the miracles of nature are stitched in multiple layers of significance, both personal and transcendent.
