Laura Dalla Vecchia Embroiders Beautiful Birds on LeavesAlthough I’ve seen leaf embroidery before, what’s so striking about the works of Laura Dalla Vecchia is the precise detail of her work. Much leaf embroidery looks simple because leaves are quite fragile, but Vecchia, a Spanish artist who lives in Brazil, uses the medium as perfectly as you might expect to see on fabric.She specializes in images of birds native to Brazil, as you can see on her Instagram page. Most birds, like this toucan, are perched on branches. The branches themselves are tiny twigs sewn onto the leaves. This gives the images a three-dimensional pop to them.-via My Modern Met#embroidery #LauraDallaVecchia #leaves

Stop Motion Animation Created with Embroidery by Huw MessieThis is embroidery taken to the next level! New media artist Huw Messie plays with the ideas of stop motion animation and embroidery and marries them into an experimental art: moving embroidery.Messie started making stop-motion animations when he was just seven years old. Now, after graduating from Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Art, he decided to apply some of the work he did in machine embroidery to stop motion.The artworks may look easy to create at first glance, but the process of creating Mussie’s moving embroideries employs a lot of knowledge on algorithms and just a lot of patience. Since the artist uses a machine for embroidery, he programmed an image processor that could convert any image to a recognizably similar stitch path. The program helps Mussie determine how he would command the machine to alter the stitches over time to create specific actions or movements for the animations.Check more of his work here!Animation above: Netting Carriage (2021) stop motion animation embroidery by Huw Messie#DigitalNewMedia #Art #Embroidery #StopMotion #HuwMessie #MovingEmbroidery
