"Being Jewish is not the same as being Zionist! Our own history of persecution as Jews helps us to understand and support the struggle of the Palestinians to determine their own destiny."

Following my embroidery sample inspired by Lisa Kokins work, I decided I wanted to produce a print sample inspired by the same effect I created with my embroidery work. As part of my research into print artists I came across a piece of artwork by Lyubov Popova. I enjoyed the way the red triangles contrasted against the background she had printed. I used blue dye and a paintbrush to create spots of dye, I then spread the spots of dye with a piece of flat wood. Once that had dried, I had previously painted red triangles which I then stuck onto the blue background. Using the heat press, I then transferred the pattern to polyester fabric. I plan to include this print in my Final outcome board as I feel it conveys my isolated narrative very well. I am very happy with how the red triangles contrast against the blue and successfully connect to my previous embroidery sample.

Embroidery Workshop 2
Our second embroidery workshop we learnt about free machine embroidery. This was my first time doing this so it took me a while to get used to. This sample I made was based off a picture of my great Aunty and Uncle's traditional Sierra Leone clothing and the patterns on it. I thought it would be a good idea to attempt to copy those designs using the machine. I found a fabric that I thought went really well with the theme of their outfits as it had beautiful gold designs on it that looked similar to the one's on their clothes. I used blue thread to match the blue outfits and tried to recreate those patterns. I had quite a bit of fabric so I was able to do a lot of practice. Personally, I found it a bit difficult to gain control of the direction I wanted the needle to go in, which caused the patterns to look a bit messy. Overall, I wasn't too happy with the outcome of the sample I made and think it could have been a bit better however I still think it can be incorporated within my sketchbook. Next time I would like to practice a bit more with the free machine embroidery and create more samples as I didn't create much I was pleased with. I'm not really too confident with using a sewing machine, however I'm still willing to try and experiment a bit more.
Lisa Kokin - Soluble Materials
Lisa Kokin uses repurposed and recycled materials that she finds at thrift stores, recycling centres, and flea markets to create her artwork. In her early work, she pieced together found photos to create often unexpectedly artificial creations of weddings, children, and other subjects. Later, she used the colours and shapes of the material to create portraits using buttons. In her most recent pieces, Kokin skilfully dissects, conceals, and weaves with thread self-help book covers and spines into vibrant, multicoloured wall installations.

Having the influence of Lisa Kokin's techniques, I included her concept of connecting images with thread into my work. I adapted her idea by using an embroidery machine to outline my primary research, emphasising the theme of connecting and communicating through the thread. While this piece is successful on how the design looks, I found a flaw in using the wrong material instead of using dissolving material during the washing process. This mistake affected the final appearance and compromised the resemblance to Kokin's work. Moving forward, learning from this mistake, reworking the artwork with the right materials to achieve a closer resemblance to Kokin's goal on connecting images through thread.

Lisa Kokin is a textile artist who works with mixed media such as book pages, fiber, threads etc. Her work has inspired me within my embroidery sessions. Lisa Kokin explains that her work is “often a commentary on the world around me.” Specifically, a piece of work titled “shooter” by Kokin inspired me in my embroidery work. I enjoyed the use of embroidered images that are weaved into a structure. Relating to my narrative, I would like to create an embroidery sample that connects isolated images or fabric between a contrasting thread or medium. As my narrative is centred around isolation, I would like to experiment in my embroidery work to create a piece inspired by Kokins work and technique that I can connect to my own. As a result of this, I have produced a successful sample which I feel conveys my narrative. I cut up pieces of red vinyl into triangles and then embroidered them onto aqua-film using a contrasting blue thread. I feel as this is successful as the red vinyl triangles are isolated against the colour and pattern of the thread. I am very happy with the result of the sample and will hopefully include it within my final outcome board.
