A word from the artist, Izziyana Suhaimi: I am Endlessly curious. My work primarily involves the use of embroidery. I am interested in collapsing the boundaries between traditional and popular cultures and exploring the links that exist between these two. My work examines how this particular mishmash manifests itself in modern times, especially concerning modern youths. Preferring to work with craft-based techniques, I am attracted to the evidence of the hand and its time-consuming aspect, which runs counter to the instant gratification and mass-production centered age of today. My works have been exhibited in Singapore, the Philippines, Taiwan and Japan.

that’s fantastic
Suhaimi has melded her wonderful pencil sketches with her incredibly talented hand embroidery embellishments. Innovative and very eye-catching. Her work appeals to art follower as well as those who prefer their art to be in hand-stitched embroideries. Stunning images!
