CLUES is an ongoing wall-based embroidery artwork. In common with much of T&P's work this piece is concerned with the clues to lives lived. We use the ephemera that floats around and in between all of our lives, consisting mainly of paper items that have been either lost, discarded, rejected or kept and treasured. By copying and sometimes enlarging these items using embroidery - we are archiving and paying homage to the old and young, the living and the dead.
