Embroidering with Oils

Using oil paint to create an illusion of textiles and embroidery Rachel work pushes new ground within the textile contemporary art scene, bridging the gap between Painting and Textiles. This unique technique allows a certain sense of creative freedom that traditional needle and thread work would not permit. The viewer is enveloped into the tactile vibrant works, swept along by the illusion of thread and plunged into the dream like narrative of each piece.
