"Red Eyes" Pair Handcrafted Knit/Crochet Multicoloured Wall Hanging
About the Item
Textile Art, handcrafted, Knit and Crochet Art Blanket, Knitted Tapestry, Wall Hanging, Affordable Art.
A pair of non identical multicoloured Pinkish red Psychedelic eyes you have the freedom to display in whichever way you wish to create your own character on your wall or furniture.
Embracing the human instincts that attract us to facial features and
bright colours created a series of knitted eyes, mouths and faces . Adding eyes is the most direct way to give instant personality to any inanimate object; Sunset Eyes are heavily inspired by 1960s toys, cartoons and psychedelic graphics: friendly, nostalgic, but a bit spaced-out. The large scale of this piece means that a building, room or piece of furniture can be transformed into a character, like a giant cuddly version of Mr Potato Head.
Knitted and crocheted pieces are individually created and connected in an intricate and time-consuming patchwork/ collage process. Each Blanket is a one-off piece, vibrantly coloured, highly tactile and soft to the touch.
It can be displayed as a wall hanging or a throw blanket.
Luxurious blends of predominantly wool yarns are hand-worked with accents of speciality yarns, mohair and super-synthetics.
This piece was shown part of the group show "Nonfinito" curated by Emma Scully in New York in December 2019.
Sold as a pair (displayed measurements are for one eye only, price displayed is for the pair).
Paris Essex work is handcrafted by two textile artists, in East London.
Recent work has been exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, London , Margate, Barcelona, Lithuania and China, Milan and Paris.

Paris Essex
Paris Essex is a partnership between Essex girl, Carolyn Clewer and Parisienne, Tiphaine de Lussy. Creative collaboration between the two knit and textiles specialists began when they met at the Royal College of Art, London and they have been creating textile art pieces as Paris Essex since 2015. The artists create each piece individually, revisiting the craft and clichés of knitting and crochet, working with combinations of hand and domestic machine techniques. They share a visual language and are drawn to the materials, processes and pace of fashion. They work in a space where distinctions between craft, design, fine art, and low culture are blurred and of equal worth. A Paris Essex "Crazy Blanket" represents a creative dialogue between Clewer and de Lussy; typically beginning by working separately using crochet and knit, then passing pieces back and forth, building one off pieces using luxurious and vibrant blends of wool , mohair and speciality yarns. Pieces are created like collages or paintings, mixing colours and textures with yarns and technical processes. Paris Essex recent work has been exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, London , Margate, Barcelona, Lithuania and China, participated in fashion shows in Milan and Paris, designed for Dutch homeware firm ‘Kitsch Kitchen’ and collaborated with the global fashion software company ‘Unmade’, the British heritage men’s label ‘Wolsey’ and Australian fashion brand ‘Romance Was Born’.
