Machine embroidery

         

Our featured textile artist this week is Arun Kumar Bajaj from India. He started machine embroidery 12 years ago and has been creating ever since, gaining him the name ‘The Needle Man’. While a lot of his work is of traditional scenes it is his portraiture that caught our attention. He often tries to use as few thread colours as possible which gives the pieces a mesmerising quality. Incredible!
