A stitched painting created on calico fabric with deep red, turquoise and midnight blue embroidered threads. It is layered with translucent silk papers and acrylic paint. Gecophone is inspired by my love of detail and vintage objects.
These Gecophones were everywhere in Britain in the 1930s, especially in the workplace. Here, it is set in a classic office with an Art Deco interior and traditional wooden filing drawers. The piece is part of the 'Talkies' collection which documents how we used to communicate in the past.
