Ghada Amer (b. 1963)

‘Here embroidery turns into an instrument of shifting and transit between objects and images, things and bodies. It is a symbol of metamorphosis that is continuous since it is uncontrollable, in which forms are created and destroyed, dissolving away and being born again, so that not only the figures make love but also the very threads of the embroidery become entwined in sensual, tactile, chromatic and curvilinear relationships.’
– Germano Celant
