Some Random Tessa Thompson Textiles
Worked on even count canvas using half cross stitch, in Appleton crewel wools. Although, the stitches are consistent, the coloured yarns were used randomly, which is how I came to title my piece. I wanted to highlight the expression used to describe a stranger or unexpected occurrence in modern society.
Stitching in continuous, repetitious lines has a soothing value, almost like calming meditation. Beads break up the lines to create a wave pattern. These represent the feeling that life has coming at us in waves. Hopefully, the calmness of the stitches lines will help the viewer to feel calm and not at all random!
