‘Loose Ends’ Rabbit * 2023 *  Fabric, thread, aluminum wire

Hand sewn, embroidered, articulated.

At loose ends… Simple embroidery, and that beautiful blue. This piece took a lot of time, and I don’t regret a moment of it.

16” x 12” x 29.5” (Ears up, sitting, thread not included in this dimension)

Entirely sewn by hand, a long (about 70hrs) meditative process of making.
The threads are meant to hang down, from the Rabbits’ resting spot
