Miena:  New Work

Miena has been featured previously in Cross Connect.  Miena creates evocative and moody landscapes similar to that of Yutuu Toyoi (of 1040uu fame).  She delicately balances the drawing and the motion together in exactly the right proportion so that you feel that you are in that particular place;  reading a book, having some tea, and feeling the gentle breeze in your hair.

Beautiful Embroideries by Michelle Kingdom  

My work explores psychological landscapes, illuminating thoughts left unspoken. I create tiny worlds in thread to capture elusive yet persistent inner voices. Literary snippets, memories, personal mythologies, and art historical references inform the imagery; fused together, these influences explore relationships, domesticity and self-perception. Symbolism and allegory lay bare dynamics of aspiration and limitation, expectation and loss, belonging and alienation, truth and illusion.

Decidedly miniature in scale, the scenes are densely embroidered into compressed compositions. While the work acknowledges the luster and lineage inherent in needlework, I use thread as a sketching tool in order to simultaneously honor and undermine this tradition. Beauty parallels melancholy, as conventional stitches acquiesce to the fragile and expressive.
