Hella Jongerius, "Embroidered Tablecloth, 2000"



Also at the Art Institute of Chicago. I thought this was particularly beautiful and interesting. I was talking with my sister-in-law over Thanksgiving about embroidery, as she uses it often in her art. She said that embroidery is meaningful to her because it cannot be reproduced. What a valuable thing in a world full of easy repetition.
