Strata....by Susan Lenz

The "Strata Series" was inspired by the cross-sectional profiles of the earth. The resulting series was worked on water-soluble fabric in free motion machine embroidery. The series was SHORT LIVED. Thus, this blog is a place to BURY blog posts....in the cross-sectional profiles. It functions as a support area for my "main" blog which is Art in Stitches by Susan Lenz.

    Dear Susan, I absolutely love Nick Cave's wonderful imbibed works filled with memories and threads of connection to the past. Your post opened my eyes to this exhibit and I was wondering if there is a catalog of this exhibit? If so would Amazon be able to supply it to the public? I need to investigate a wee bit more. Imagine and Live in Peace, Mary Helen Fernandez Stewart
