Wangaratta Art Gallery
Textile, Ying Chew, 'Unidentified'
‘Unidentified’ is part of a body of work challenging distinctions between art and craft, looking at the relationship between women and needlework, and through this questioning aspects of the human condition such as the impermanence of life and what we leave behind. This triptych is part of a series of portraits inspired by daguerreotypes. I am interested in capturing a sense of the ephemeral nature of life which is reflected in these images which appear as photographs from a distance but become less and less focussed as you approach until they become just stitches on fabric.Wangaratta Art Gallery CollectionThree separate black and white petit point pixelated portraits.ying chew, petit point, textile, embroidery -
