Another beautiful embroidery installation. In Ilaria’s words, embroidering is a “courageous sign of preservation, of mending a wound, of keeping a memory or of disguising an apparent shape.”

Love.

   I like this one a lot, but her hand near her eye makes me nervous for some reason :/ Probably because I hate having people put their hands near my face!
