Description
Discover the creative possibilities of fragmentation and repair in textile art. Renowned artist Shelley Rhodes explores this fascinating topic in her book, offering fresh ideas and practical advice for artists looking to incorporate these techniques into their work. Shelley explains how she reconstructs and reassembles materials to create new pieces, often incorporating found objects and items collected over the years to add depth and emotional resonance. The book covers various techniques, including fragmentation of materials, repair using darning and patching, and methods for distressing and manipulating surfaces. Beautifully illustrated with Shelley's own pieces alongside those of other leading artists, this book is an ideal companion for textile artists looking to bring notions of fragility, fragmentation, and repair into their work.
