Tired

The final piece I made while on Art Foundation at Leeds Arts in 2020 - a course which was interrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic & subsequent lockdowns.

A freehand-embroidered text piece made to fit over the small window in my bedroom at my mums house, like a curtain or cell bars. The words were taken from a dream diary I was keeping at the time, while I was suffering from chronic fatigue - as well as the mass loneliness, parinoia and fear of the pandemic. I then filmed myself sleeping under the shadows the "curtain" cast in my room.
