En savoir plus sur le livre

This stylish and fascinating book by textile artist Jordan Cunliffe demonstrates how raw data, maps, and personal experiences can be transformed into meaningful textile art. Focusing on the quieter moments of life, Cunliffe illustrates how stitched data can narrate stories, highlight significant locations, convey hidden messages, and document personal details like daily walks or sleep patterns. Her work features a long fabric strip with a stitch for each day of her life, a reimagined childhood book in unreadable code, and beaded representations of important documents. The book offers practical methods for representing various life aspects through graphs or maps, such as creating a unique color palette from flowers along a favorite path or encoding private thoughts in beaded Morse code. With visually stunning examples of her work alongside contributions from other data-focused artists worldwide, the book invites readers to explore a fresh perspective in embroidery and textile art, proving that data can be both beautiful and a source of inspiration for stunning stitched creations.
