Bexhill Breakwaters
Inspired by breakwaters observed at Bexhill-on–Sea. The patterns of the waves moving around these structures are ever-changing:the seascape constantly re-made
The breakwaters are constructed of Japanese kasuri fabrics from vintage kimonos inserted into slots cut into a section of an old , tattered, hand-quilted Durham Quilt. The quilt background was then coated in gesso and machine stitched from the front and also from the back with thicker thread in the bobbin. Finally acrylic paint was applied over the stitching and the breakwater structures loosely tacked down with hand stitches
