Lisa Solomon caught my attention as she appears to be one of the most focussed in choice of media and practice. She sews. As a method to draw. The actual images of shooting practice sheets grabbed me initially. The very act of using your choice of media to not only create an artwork out of an everyday object but to also conceptually mend and restore an object fully struck a chord. the aesthetics, the thinking.
Plus an example of the intricate drawings created, the hanging threads cause me to like her work even more. The full on revolt of the perfection so many artists are incapable of letting go. These images would be less, far less, if they did not have these elements. Fit media. Cardboard could feel a threat.
