patchwork detail
This humorous piece was made in answer to a brief surrounding an alternative 'ideal home show' and was part of a group of sculptures and artwork all commenting upon the domestic setting and feminism. 
This carefully composed and juxtaposition group of found images is a commentary on how women over the last fifty years have been portrayed in the media. From domestic settings to porn shoots these images invariably have been taken by me for men. Even the adverts for the most mundane items like engine parts are entitled 'All part of the service' and accompanied by a bikini-clad woman. The domestic interiors magazines show women 'helping' men.  

This wood panel piece is made using original magazine cuttings dating back to 1950. The paper is hand bonded onto birch ply, glazed and then laser cut into the traditional patchwork hexagon shape. These are then patchworked back together to create a single panel. 

The piece is ready framed with a solid light tulip wood frame.

Abstract artist, Amelia Coward is renowned for her explorations into mixing, blending and grading colours, with a growing international profile. Born in 1975, she holds a 1st class Honours from Central St Martins and MA from the Royal College of Art. Her artworks can be found in both private and corporate collections worldwide. Amelia creates artworks that focus on the interaction of colours combined with the carefully composed spacial balance between geometric elements such as circles and stripes. Influenced by her woven textile training she uses laser cutters much the same way as she was trained to use a loom, cutting geometric shapes then reassembling them in patchwork compositions. Located in a traditional Oast Barn in the Kent countryside, Amelia combines her prolific making of new pieces with her commercial giftware business, Bombus. Each influences the other. Amelia has a team of creative makers in her studio to help to assemble, photograph, frame and pack all the works.
