Thermal Gossip is a piece in a larger body of work this body of work where I referenced these so-called mistakes, the grainy slips of color and shadows that hint at half-told stories. This collection reimagines accidental moments captured in film photography as tactile embroidered landscapes. By translating these ‘errors’ into thread, I explore how imperfections can become an intentional narrative. A shape becomes a figure, a light leak maps a mood. These traces on celluloid guide my needle and thread. (Read more about my love for imperfections – and my nostalgic crush on Vinnie from Biker Mice – here)
