+ postage: £3.95 GBPLOUISE SAXTON cut & pinned is a self-published monograph reflecting the artist’s past two decades collecting, reclaiming and re-imagining discarded needlework. Embroidery and lace made in past eras by past makers is on the brink of extinction and so too are many of the plants and animals that inspired their creation. Louise Saxton’s reclamation project, so beautifully profiled in her publication, addresses these dual vulnerabilities. Through the reinterpretation of historical paintings, in found needlework, from the colonial era through to twentieth century artists, Saxton also seeks to raise the status of the mostly anonymous makers whose creative labour has historically been considered merely ‘women’s work’. Her reclaimed ‘cut & pinned’ needlework assemblages, profiled in full colour in her book, make a significant contribution to the long line of artists seeking to level the playing field between what is considered fine art and what is dismissed as craft.
