Penelope by Tatiana Blass | Design Milk
Penelope is a recent installation from Tatiana Blass – the name for the exhibit is taken from Homer’s Odyssey. Penelope was Odysseus’ wife and she remained faithful for twenty years while he was away at war. To keep her suitors at bay, she kept herself busy for three years weaving a burial shroud for her father-in-law while secretly unweaving parts of it at night. She promised she would choose one when she was done but delayed it to remain faithful.

Danny Mansmith, I love the stitched sculpture that his work has, the patch working is also just brilliant. I’m still staring at the details that the work has, marvellous.
