Watch Meh

The dimensional embroidery, termed by me are actually local phrases made from thread wrapped around wire and wadding. Adele Todd’s dimensional embroidery, “DEM DOES MACO MEH TOO, DEM HEAD SPINNING, JEALOUSING, DEM CONFUSE ?”
I looked at the idea of our local slang words and their playful meaning in these works that I have coined as ‘dimensional embroidery.’ I use this name because my objective is to play with thread in a way where the material can come alive through continuous wrappings. These works are made with wire, wadding and miles and miles of threads.
