What is this page about
Linda calls the idea of her work a rethinking of old craftsmanship. According to her, embroidery is still often associated with "what grandmothers used to do." With her own works, Linda seeks to show how embroidery can be modern, interesting, even ironic. For work, our heroine uses traditional materials and tools, and the results are unusual. “In my work, I pay great attention to every detail,” says Linda. At the same time, two identical embroidered paintings do not come out from under her needle: each is unique. In addition to photographs of finished works and the process, in her account you will also find inspirational photos: interiors, still lifes, landscapes.
