Material
This diptych was made with a variety of secondhand yarn, upcycled canvas frames and some semi-transparent secondhand mesh fabric. The frames used to feature a (tasteless) canvas print and were stripped and re-stretched with the synthetic mesh fabric. The yarns are a wild mix of cotton and wool based yarns.
Technique
The image on the canvases is created by using a punch needle. The different fluffy or flat sections are made by working from the two different sides of each canvas. On the working side, the flat and embroidery-like stitches are created, while on the back side, tiny loops will form. The punch needle can be adjusted to different lengths, making some of the loops shorter or longer and therefore creating higher or lower carpet-like sections. These pieces intentionally feature some empty sections, so that the semi-transparent fabric lets the wall color behind each artwork shine through to the front.
Styling
This dreamy diptych is a perfect center piece above your bed or side board. The semi-transparent fabric is an interesting touch, that makes these pieces also ideal for a gallery wall. The pieces can be used seperately, but work best displayed as a pair.
