Ways of dividing love

hand embroidery, silk, cotton and polyester thread on cotton twill, 30 x 36cm each, 2025

Ways of Dividing Love is a diptych of embroidered geometric compositions where relationships take form through colour.

Each hue represents someone close to me. I invited them to choose a colour that reflects themselves, and from these choices, I embroidered abstract “cities,” spaces where these shapes meet, interlace, and interact.

In these compositions, love is visualised as a shared, emotional landscape, each colour holding a presence, a memory, a connection.
