Watercolor & Thread Art, Small Original Art. Ready to hang. 9.5 x 7 inches.
Fragments of Home #32, On Fire Again by Suzanne Gibbs. This mixed media work on paper combines layered watercolor and extensive Sashiko stitching to depict a brick red house shape rising from a field of angular black and rust thread. Vertical red stitched lines climb the surface of the structure like interior flames, while dense, jagged stitching surrounds and encroaches upon the form. The contrast between the saturated watercolor body and the restless perimeter of thread suggests containment and pressure, heat and persistence, holding and unraveling. The stitched surface binds the painted form together, emphasizing tension, endurance, and the charged emotional architecture of home.
