A textile piece photographed on @amydrasutis exploring the therapeutic process of creating something tangible, and how these inanimate physical objects substitute for reassurance and care in times of loneliness and isolation.
Consisting of a range of 6 textile pieces of coloured yarn tufted into the texture of moss, I was inspired by the plants’ solidarity as it anchors onto rock, bark and soil, and how it manages to leave a trace onto where it’s been before. Like a soul tie of two lovers embracing, when you stick two planks of wood together, and attempt to rip it apart, both sides contain a residue of each other- a residue of memories, emotions- a memento.
