ArtTalk Details
Even in this advanced age of the 21st century, embroidery is still considered by many as an insignificant decorative craft; often it is insulted as mere 'women's work' thereby denigrating women's creative prowess as well as the craft itself.
This talk extols the wonders from 11th century 'Opus Anglicanum' (the most desired gift for popes, kings and princes) to amazing examples of 21st century work with contemporary fabrics and threads, with both creative and experimental uses of machine and hand stitchery.
