Fabric and Thread Illustrations by Sarah Trahan


Sarah Trahan is an artist and art educator originally from Michigan whose fabric and thread illustrations recently caught my eye. Mystical, soothing, and serene. That's the vibe I get from her art. Via her website:

"Sarah Trahan is an artist interested in the intersection between technology and handmade materiality. Using an interdisciplinary approach, her work experiments with emerging technologies and investigates how unfinished or imperfect artifacts of these technologies can trigger reflection on our collective perceptions of labor, value, and authorship.

Sarah is currently based in Ipswich, MA and serves as Assistant Professor and Digital Fabrication Studio Director at Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA. Her work is shown regularly in gallery spaces across the U.S. and is published internationally."




Incredibly beautiful work, I would love to see these up close. Follow Sarah on Instagram to enjoy seeing her latest creations.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her.  Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
