Them and Us is a hand made textile artwork using the craft of filet crochet which works with open and closed lace squares that create a pixelated and digital binary aesthetic. From one side of the window the word 'THEM' is apparent and from the other side we see 'US'.

​

The artist has chosen to work with crochet as it cannot be automated, unlike knitting, embroidery or lacework. All crochet is made by hand. 

​

'Them and Us' is an antidote to the twitching net curtains that used to be so popular in our homes, creating a clear division between the private domestic and public outside world. Its as if the curtains are taking a point of view and giving us their opinion, reminding us that there are two sides to every story.
