What would you do if youwere locked inside a prison cellwith no obvious way out?
Confined to the labyrinth of your mind, you discovered that expression really was the antidote to depression.
Through enduring the isolation of lonesomeness the only way out was to step inside your imagination and draw.
What began as single stationary footsteps in the night became a way of being,a path to salvation that united you with something you had lost since you were a child.
That way was the way of wonder.
I am offering the chance to own one of three expressions of my favourite drawing; a meditation on hope, freedom and on finding your true self. Wherever you are.

FINDING THE THREAD
We experimented with different materials, stitches and densities
before finding the right way to translate the original drawing into thread.
I have found the best golden thread artisans in London to faithfully
work with me to reimagine the piece by hand in gold thread.
We will be using rough matte bullion with the intricate lines edged with Pearl Purl.
Every golden stitch threaded by hand, for you.
