Background Noise, mixed media textile artwork by Samira Stephens with layered beads and sequins in a wooden embroidery hoop.
Story behind the piece I made this while thinking about how my brain handles overwhelm. When too much happens at once, it feels like everything gets pushed onto a separate channel just so I can keep functioning. The noise never really goes away though, it just sits underneath everything else. Even in quiet moments, it’s still there. Sparkle Series This piece is part of the Sparkle Series, a body of work exploring the inner experiences that shape everyday life but are often kept private. Each artwork reflects a different emotional state or way of coping, forming a collection of small personal studies that can be viewed individually or as a larger emotional landscape. Artist notes Created by hand using a slow and intentional textile process, this piece celebrates care, detail, and tactile richness. Each artwork is entirely one of a kind, shaped by intuition and the natural rhythm of making rather than a fixed plan. This is an original, one-of-a-kind artwork. No prints or reproductions exist. The piece shown in the image is the exact artwork you will receive. Created in Melbourne, Australia. Included Includes one original hand stitched textile artwork presented in a wooden embroidery hoop. Ready to hang on a wall or display on a shelf. Care instructions Handle with care. Avoid direct sunlight for prolonged periods to preserve colour. Dust gently with a soft dry cloth. This is a delicate textile artwork and is not intended to be handled frequently.
