Sewn News is a collection of hand sewn art creations by Lauren DiCioccio. From The Artist | “I describe the beauty of the ritual experience of newspaper-reading by describing the paper as a tactile and fragile object in the language of craft. The pieces in this series are entire issues of The New York Times encased in hand-embroidered cotton muslin. I select a photograph from the paper; usually a strong image suggestive of power, leadership or communication; and embroider the image onto the fabric, applying colors in a painterly way and layering line and thread”. You can view the artist’s entire collection of work at her site. Explore.
