Creative, Intriguing ART by Marilyn Stevens

 

A very special artist to share with you today, Marilyn Stevens.

 

“Insufficient Distance” by Marilyn Stevens

I came across the work of Artist Marilyn Stevens and had to share it with you.

Her work, her pieces are simply wonderful.

“Not Done with My Changes”
 
“Using traditional handwork techniques, I combine imagery, text, handmade paper and textiles in unconventional ways.”
 
“Layers”
 
“At first glance, one sees re-appropriation and re-use of pattern paper and dress forms.”
 
“Plank To Plank”
 
 “But further exploration of each piece reveals a multitude of layers; a host of stories, feelings and life reflections.”
 
“I Know You By Heart”
 
 The stitch, used in many of my pieces is a connection to previous generations.” 
 
 “Rather than a pragmatic practice, the stitch is an intentional mark, a means of expression.”
 
“One”
 

 

“Absence of Transparency”

“Being Her, Now”
