Image Statement: I live in a house divided but it is still standing. This free-form hand embroidery depicts the division in our country between family, friends, and neighbors. But it also shows that we are a stronger country when we lean on each other and trust in each other. A House Divided is a free-form embroidery stitched on wool fabric using cotton threads dyed by the artist. It is framed and ready for display.
