Matthew Cox's Embroidered X-rays


Of all the uses of thread I saw at the art fairs, and they were myriad and multitudinousness, even more so than last year, Matthew Cox's embroidery on x-ray at Pentimenti Gallery's booth at Pulse struck me as novel and apt.


The Botticelli-esque embroidery fleshes out the lines suggested by the x-rays. The contrast between the x-ray and the embroidery works well, although I wish the pieces could have been backlit to show off the x-rays better.
