I am completely fascinated by the recent embroidery work of french artist cécile jarsaillon. using images from a safety manual as inspiration and a backdrop, she satin stitches over the photos leaving just enough space for the range of color in the image to show through. Jarsaillon’s work is currently showing in the “sur les fils” exhibit at the musée international d'art modeste in Sete, France, until may 2010.
