Embroidery on linen, variable dimensions, 2019-2022 Embroiderers: V. Vyunitskaya, A. Geisen, E. Reznik.

​

In Ukraine, embroidery is still important for decorating clothes, household linens and ritual objects. I revived traditional cross-stitch embroidery to represent the migratory space through plants. By doing the embroidery on both sides of the fabric, it becomes a three-dimensional space. There is no front, no back, the fabric is a single space where threads, such as plant roots, pass from one surface to another through the holes in the linen weft. ​
