Archana Pathak

        

 

Archana Pathak uses heat transfer to print an image of a found object onto fine cotton. She then cuts it into thin strips and uses this as her thread or ‘fabric lace.’ The starting point behind each art work is fascinating. Here she explains the concept behind the images above, Transcient Boundries and I Can See You But Can You See Me …. 

 

“Transcient Boundries is exploring the artificiality of transient boundaries through a found old Paris Map and uses linen for the base fabric and transfer print and stitch.”

 

“I Can See You But Can You See Me (above) is based on a beautiful found portrait photograph with a playful hand-written note –‘I can see you but can you see me?’ on the back. The picture and the hand-written note complement each other strikingly, while the captured moment can have many interpretations. Again linen was used for the base fabric and use of repetitive running stitch with printed lace of original found artifact.”
