Triptych Compressions (Bruises)

Following a bike accident, the appearance of bruising and the layered nature of skin was simulated by the manipulation of an abstracted image of a textile loom. The scrap silk fibres were weaved back together into a sample that explores the healing potential that exists when natural materials meet craft practices.
