Dreams of Amarna by Rachel Mary Wright
Embark on a mesmerizing journey through the sands of time with Rachel Mary Wright as she reimagines ancient Egyptian art and history in embroidery and paint. Inspired by the vibrant tales of Mary Chubb and the enduring beauty of the Amarna period, Rachel's creations are a testament to the evolving power of play and imagination. From the delicate lotus flowers to the regal cartouche of Nefertiti, each stitch tells a story of passion, dedication and discovery. Dreams of Amarna is an invitation to explore the development of creativity in conversation with the art and archaeology of Egypt. "Rachel is not simply recreating the masterpieces of the ancients in a different medium she is reinterpreting and reimagining them." Ian Andrew Oswald Trumble, Archeologist and Museum curator. "Dreams of Amarna is an inspirational book that explores Rachel Mary Wright's passion for ancient Egyptian culture and art. Her enthusiasm for reinventing the visual ideas she has come to admire manifests itself in her own textile journey, which will, I'm sure, encourage embroiderers to do the same." Anthea Godfrey, Artistic Director, The Embroiderers Guild.
