Pricked: Extreme Embroidery

The NYC Museum of Arts of Design (right across the street from the MoMA on 53rd street) is currently running an amazing show called Pricked: Extreme Embroidery. I had the pleasure the check it out yesterday and can highly recommend it. The pictures shown on the site really don’t do the exhibit justice.

One of my favorite pieces was by canadian artist Emily Herrmant called the lies project.
