Pomegranates - The Labour of Love
Textiles
2023
Canvas, various rhinestones
10x10 inch
Relating to the ‘Orange Theory’, a metaphor for an idea that love consists of selfless acts of labour, Ipatiently crafted rhinestoned pomegranates. This project was about the final result, as well as, the journey one takes to get there. The attention to detail and patience to lay every rhinestone to create this piece was a time consuming journey. The labour of love can be seen through the creation of art for others you love. A beautiful journey of commitment.
