The original collaboration

The original collaboration

Kate Banazi and Diego Berjon

July 8, 2015

Kate Banazi, an artist who's work I find totally amazing, posted the results of a collaboration between herself and Diego Berjon on instagram recently. I loved the image and thought it a great idea when Kate suggested stitching it. Ideally I'd have stitched the entire artwork but unfortunately time is not kind to those who do needlepoint (ie. it takes ages). Instead I stitched a small section after converting the image to pixels.

The result is interesting and has moved the original piece into an alternative space. I made 3 copies of the work, one for everyone involved. They wont be for sale as I don't really feel the work belongs to me. The process of working with the image was refreshing and I'm happy to have my version up at home.

I wasn’t sure about this one but I like it now it’s on a frame. It’s seems very happy and cake like? Also a bit wintery? Thoughts on a postcard ... #contemporaryart #abstractart #needlepoint  #textileart #textileoftheday

Sorting through plan chest and re visiting abandoned work. I used to combine print with stitch and I might look at this again. I struggle with fully stitched backgrounds, not just because of the time they take but also the texture.  #abstract #stitch #contemporaryart #handembroidery #artist #textiles #workinpaper #process #zoegilbertson
