Coolest hair embroidery ever, very contemporary, digital influence, themes of abjection, reading her artist statement on the saatchi site she covers a lot of the issues i want to explore in my own work. Her embroidery is more like drawing, and the hair still looks like hair trailing of the page with a life of its own. She has a facebook page made of hair, and a second life symbol. She pretty much ticks every box there is to tick in the whatamandalikes category.

Insane textile works, Dita will love them! vagina dentata om nom nom nom scary... her hair embroidery is amazing! inspiring... it has a repulsive feel to it, and of course very feminist themes. Read this post she has written it is so beautiful!!! makes you think, and makes you take a second look at her work and your own, what inspires you, what is real, what matters and what you feel like you are qualified to say... read it and you'll know what i mean :)

Best website design i have seen today, usually craft sites look like word document and have bright red text and are horrific to try and navigate but this one was epic! You can tel she doesn't work with hair specifically as the works she has posted pale in comparison to others i mention... they're still quite nice though.
