“I’m dealing firstly with identity, as well as sociopolitics around gender and skin tone” - We can’t get enough of contemporary Malawian artist Billie Zangewa’s textile art 🤩 Zangewa uses raw silk appliqué to document daily life and critique the roles that women play #contemporaryart #textile #textileart #tapestry #billiezangewa #design #craft #embroidery #embroideryartist #sewing #stitch
The Gee’s Bend Quilt tradition has been carried on by Loretta P. Bennett, whose mother introduced her to quilt-making. Her contemporary take on the quilt uses bold, sparse geometric shapes, hot pinks and cobalt blues, and materials like corduroy and velveteen, as in the piece ‘Two Sided Geometric Quilt‘. The Gee’s Bend quilts are emblems of a tradition of women’s craft, community creativity and Civil Rights.

#regram We love this new painting ‘figure with figurine’ by British artist Claudette Johnson currently on display at Modern Art Oxford in their exhibition of her work ‘I Came to Dance’. This piece is a response to Picasso - Johnson recalls seeing a reproduction of Les Demoiselles D’Avignon at art college and being ‘struck by the rawness of the image, the fractured space, his use of African imagery and the fearlessness of the women’ @mao_gallery #art #fineart #painting #claudettejohnson #picasso #contemporaryart #modernart #painter
