Sonia Delaunay

 

Sonia Delaunay emigrated from Russia to Paris in the early moments of the Post-Impressionist era, during the 1920s, she focused upon bringing a new artistic lyricism into the world of high fashion, transforming fabrics for fashion into a moveable artistic feast. This is an example of one of her textile designs.

Painted by resident Nurse Cheri Trifel {Linda Miller} who makes one-off, framed and unframed machine embroideries. Using her distinctive, unique style, she creates rich, colourful, naive and humorous embroideries which contain figures set in the outdoors, always happy, always smiling, and usually depicted within a story.
