    All the birds from the Swedish Pattern Book XIII

    Drawing (2013), Cross-stitch patterns from an edition called the Swedish Pattern Book XIII (1930). Installation with drawings and old needlework patterns from Sweden and Russia. The things we do everyday create patterns in our lives. We seem to have a need to organize and structure our reality, as an attempt to make sense of it. Patterns give us meaning. To understand is to see patterns!
