'Creation' by Penny Hughes
Artist & Designer: Penney Hughes
Title: ‘Creation’
Details: Inspired by the work of Remedios Varo
Creation was inspired from several sources of Varo’s work and her love of the mystical. I have chosen a theme based on an alternative creation story that was once told to me. The summary of the story is the Universe began with a Goddess and when the Goddess saw herself reflected in the mirror of space, she fell in love and the process of creation began. The doll is constructed cloth over wire armature. She is entirely hand sewn.
