I am excited about these pieces. Pop art has always been a huge inspiration of mine, the use of bold color and imagery has always been appealing to me. The first few pieces in this collection focus primarily on stripes. Each piece started by embroidering striped fabric using dozens of pieces of silk and then using that fabric as an applique in the pieces. I am also experimenting with reverse silhouettes in these pieces. You will notice icons created and mounted in relief as well as icons created with luxury up-cycled boxes and the fabric mounted in relief. I look forward to creating more pop art pieces in the coming weeks. - Stephen Wilson
