Noble Woman — From Image to Textile Art Olá, sou Anna Davydova, artista têxtil e fundadora da Silent Threads Studio. Noble Woman é uma obra de arte têxtil bordada à mão com contas, desenvolvida a partir de uma referência visual baseada numa pintura de Konstantin Makovsky. Nesta publicação, partilho algumas etapas do processo que deu origem à obra: a referência visual, o esquema de bordado, o resultado final e um detalhe em macro que revela a textura e a riqueza do trabalho manual. Interessa-me explorar a transformação de uma imagem numa obra têxtil física, através da cor, da luz, da textura e de um processo minucioso de execução. A Noble Woman é apresentada aqui como parte do meu percurso artístico e como exemplo da abordagem criativa e técnica da Silent Threads Studio. Partilhar este processo é também uma forma de mostrar o trabalho que existe para além da imagem final: as decisões, a preparação e o tempo dedicado a cada detalhe.
Estás a par de todas as publicações.
