I've still not found an expression which reflects what I am trying to say.
On Wednesday I went to a live computer linked transmission from New York by John & Julia McIntyre. Inspiring, reassuring, energising people and wonderful magical textiles which utilise embroidery, crochet and knit.
I am missing stitch and I'll get back to it.
Group tutorial today which I will miss because I have no work I want to talk about.
One week left before the Christmas break, three weeks break from NUA, then one week before the deadline. I will spend some time incorporating stitch into my prints - and I am looking forward to that. Hopefully the added dimension of stitch will provide the breakthrough I am looking for.
Reflecting on my dilemma - I have been trying to express too many things. Firstly the invisibility of 'older age' women but also the energy and vibrancy of 'older age' women. I also wanted to incorporate text into my work whilst avoiding literal expression. I want to feature transparency in the form of pixellation, blurring and disguise. I know I will get there eventually... and I'd like to think I would find expression before the deadline.
