Sarah Gwyer : Contemporary Embroidery Beaded Pop Art
Manage episode 358057088 series 1525659
Today I explore hand embroidered and beaded pop art with contemporary pop art textile artist Sarah Gwyer.
We talk about her magpie-like 'obsession' with colourful beads and charms and the artistic path to creating beaded portraits.
But beneath the colourful sparkling beads lies strong social commentary on celebrity, wealth and consumerism, all expressed in a distinctive pop art style.
And we dive into the copyright complexities that Sarah has found herself entwined in over her desire to portray celebrities as parody.
This is such an interesting chat, and thank you to Sarah for sharing her story. And of course... we have a good old laugh in amongst the serious topics!
