Allergy

Exploration

Un-commissioned | New Talent

Why did you make this work:
These embroidery works were created based on my personal allergy experiences. I have suffered from allergies like urticaria and asthma for years, and pollen is the main reason for my allergen. So being motivated by this, I wanna use allergy as a theme for my works, and I chose to use fabrics and beads for this theme so that people could touch to feel it as those allrgies on their skins.

What materials and techniques did you use?:
Fabric and bead.

How were your illustrations used:
