Textile Truth

Description

The piece subverts traditional ideas about textiles and feminity, the pursuit of Cross Stitch and homophobia. The work is in small red cross stitch that illustrates a personal truth about homophobia. It is at odds with 'middle-class' attitudes towards homophobic harrasment and assault. However it is produced by means of a craft that is often pursued by persons from a 'middle-class' background. This dichotomy is heightened by the use of red thread as a reminder of the colour of blood.
