physical stitch

The film Physical Stitch evolved from a conversation with artist Liz Harding. Through our discussions it became obvious that we shared an interest in documenting the making process.

I am curious about the current rejuvenation of sewing at the present time and what is the relationship of domestic arts to art practice. In this piece we reflect on the artistic process. Liz Harding has been and continues to be inspired by landscape near her home, which she walks regularly. In the film we consider the historical tradition of painting en plein air through the less familiar medium of embroidery.
