Module 1 Resolved Sample Mounted

The above sample is mounted on white matt board. The sample was first attached to foam core board, which is invisible on the underside, and is further raised again by another layer of strips of foam board. This has then been mounted on white picture framing matt board. This raises the piece providing the appearance of 'fragile textile relic found as treasure in an underwater wreck'.

Module 1 Resolved Sample Details

Details showing further hand stitching to enhance the overall piece and add to the effect of disintegration. Layers are emphasised by staggering and burning the edges to create an irregular border and add to the weathered look.

The background layer has been given a pearlised finish to give the impression of the sun sparkling through water, the bright coloured French Knots blend with the background and also depict the colours of coral and fish in a tropical sea.
