BATTLING EMBROIDARIES and CANINE CAMEOS

August 25 – September 2007

 

OUI BOUTIQUE is pleased to announce BATTLING EMBROIDARIES and CANINE CAMEOS, an exhibition of exciting new work by JB Bones (aged 12) and Seb Clarke (aged 15).

This exhibition explodes any preconceptions you have about the traditional art of embroidery. Jack B Bones’ visceral works depict energetic war scenes that completely up end the stitch medium. He started the scenes after an initial piece he created for his grandmothers’ birthday.

Seb Clarke beautifully captures dogs in profile using recycled fabrics from home. “If you came to my house you would see some canine cameos have the same fabric as some of our chairs, sofas and curtains.” He prefers to focus on breeds only, no mongrels unless by request.
