Thank god for abortion - hand dyed wall hanging Sculpture

I often reflect on world political events in my work. Recently in ‘Thank god for abortion’ I reflected on the devastating Roe v Wade overturn. This wall hanging is made from linen, a textile that symbolises purity, and is hand dyed with indigo, a traditional dye that turns from light green to dark blue during the oxidisation process - a process of rapid transformation. The random embroidery lines were stitched blind while I repeated to myself the phrase ‘thank god for abortion’, over and over, as an attempt to embody my feelings about the phrase in thread. I chose pink, a symbol of femininity and innocence to contrast with the dark, and stereotypically ‘masculine’ blue. The back of the quilt features my hand sewn signature. Dimensions and materials: 55x58 cm, linen, cotton. Display notes: this wall hanging comes with a hand sewn hanging sleeve. All you have to do to beautifully display your new piece of art is purchase a plastic, metal or wooden rod from a building supply shop, have them cut it 4cm longer than the hanging sleeve and either hang over sturdy nails, or screw in screw eyes at each end and hang these over nails.
