Contemporary Embroidery
Erin Endicott
Artist’s Statement
To stitch; a thread or line that holds things together – this is the literal translation of the ancient Sanskrit word “sutra”. The “Healing Sutras” grew out of years of work examining psychological wounds (mainly my own), their origins and how they insinuate themselves into our lives. I’m particularly intrigued by the concept of inherited wounds, specific patterns, behaviors, reactions, that we are born with – already seeded into our psyche at birth.

Contemporary Embroidery
EACH STITCH REPRESENTS A CONNECTION TO THE PAST, BINDING LAYERS OF
MATERIAL AND MEMORY TO THE PRESENT MOMENT.
