This one supposed to be for someone else







I admit that this is supposed to be a commisioned work.
It's for one of my previous bussiness acquintance new
office. She wants to be full with patches that has
messages on woman and other environmental issues
because it's an NGO office that she's going to opened.

I used 36 woodcut and screen printing patches made
by my friend in Jogjakarta, Central Java. I love their
choices of colours and also their neat production quality.
For the fabric, it's from an unused bedsheet with stripes.

But come on, who would let something this cool being
taken away? I know, I'm just being an egocentric crafter:)

Love in fuschia.








This is my favorite patches piece that I have ever made so far.
I even tattoed this artwork on my leftarm. The artwork only
has one line: Tresno. It means love in Sanskrit and I order like
50 pieces of patches from my a woodcut artist friend of mine
in Jogja.

The only thing missing from this one metre piece is a part where
I could hang it on to something. Therefore I am thinking of using
it as a sofa throws instead of wall hanging.

What do you think?

Black and Red Means Rebelliously Yummy!



Oh I really, really love how this one turned out.
I order the patches in bunches like 50 of them
only in red and grey colour fabric background,
screeprinted with a woodcut art by a friend in
Jogja.

The patches only have one line, Mardika!
means Free with a guy in a long dread playing
his guitar in style. Rock on!
