Izziyana Suhaimi

These beautiful emroidered drawings are by a  Izziyana Suhaimi. I have mailed her asking if any of her pieces are for sale, i’m really hoping she gets back to me….

– My work primarily involves the use of embroidery. I am interested in collapsing the boundaries between traditional and popular cultures and exploring the links that exist between these two. My work examines how this particular mishmash manifests itself in modern times, especially concerning modern youths. Preferring to work with craft-based techniques, I am attracted to the evidence of the hand and its time-consuming aspect, which runs counter to the instant gratification and mass-production centred age of today. My works have been exhibited in Singapore, the Philippines, Taiwan and Japan.
