This is the main tumblog of Silvie Kilgallon. I'm a conceptual artist and my work is largely influenced by my academic interests in classics, ancient history, translation, and philosophy of language. This blog details conceptual, casual and personal projects on which I am currently working. To see the Stitched Iliad project, please check out the Stitched Iliad blog below.

12/36. One third done. It’s really nice to have a project that doesn’t take months/years to complete.

Hopefully a present for someone. Started yesterday. So far, we have French knots, woven wheels (whipped and unwhipped) bullion knots, cast on stitch, button hole wheel, heavy chain, and stem stitch.

The top poem is 'The Divine Image' from William Blake's Songs of Innocence. The lower poem is 'The Human Abstract' from Songs of Experience. Half way through finishing the lower piece I realised I should have done it upside down rather than just right aligned. So that at any one time only one of the poems would have been the correct way up to read. Live and learn.

I feel unproductive because I've not managed to finish anything, but here's what I've been working on. This stitch takes so much time. The above represents about an hour and a half's work, and I'm maybe just over a quarter done on this code.
I SHALL reach line 100 before day 20, I shall!
It's good to be working daily on this project again.

Day 17.
