Subversive tapestry pillows // Others // Added 2009/06/11 at 15:27

Embroidering canvases used to be a typically French tradition for grandmothers, and their meticulously framed ‘artworks’ are now left for grabs in garage sales or dumps.
It is such a shame to let these pieces go, and Le truc Project has decided to pay homage to their hard work.

Each salvaged tapestry is reinterpreted and/or re-embroidered in order to give a new dynamic to its subject matter and to give it a contemporary edge.
