Soft sculpture - yarn stitched on reclaimed fabric, then stuffed
The phrase, It could be worse, repeatedly stitched in two rows, on reclaimed fabric. By using pale pink yarn on pale pink fabric, the stitched text is hard to read from a distance, making it like a whisper. It’s a somewhat loaded phrase, spoken by others to console us in times of pain and hard ship, and often used in self talk, when trying to comfort ourselves. It could be worse. I’m hoping the squishy soft sculpture is more comforting than the phrase stitched on it.
