Photographer Jenny Van Sommers alters the pages of
Realities magazine for her surreal project, Series 9. Though these
photographs have nothing to do with thread, the painted cardboard
geometric shapes have a textile feel to them. Images via Nowness

I love these mixed media pieces by Masako Miki. The deer sculpture is made of
felt. The artwork above incorporates thread and acrylic on either paper or wood.
Be sure to check out her other paintings on her website.
