PROJECT CURRENTLY ON HIATUS
“Interwoven Perspectives” is an ongoing collaborative project started by William Carroll and Emily Adams during the Sideways Residency to fit William’s mandate of collaborating with other artists. Our goal was to create individual aerial surveys of unique pocket universes in conversation with artists like David Lynch, Sally Mann, Kelly Ryan and Victoria Villasana with an aim to create beauty from decay contrasting traditional still life and deterring away from traditional fine art forms and historical renderings of this subject matter.
Using traditional embroidery methods we challenge aspects of labour and domesticity associated with craft, a realm of artistic expression usually associated with the practical and functional. By subverting this and associating this medium with the topic of decay, embroidery and photography take on new meaning together.
