Stitching The Times

I don't know what it is about newspapers that attracts me as an artist. I've done many a "painting" using the NYTimes. So when I saw this and other sewn works by Lauren DiCioccio, well they're just plain impressive.
What's especially interesting is how the trailing threads and unfinished look are what really make these pieces sing. She provides a compelling Statement on her Website that's very thought provoking.
