Embroidered Vintage Photos That Give Them 3D Effect
Textile artist from Mexico, Victoria Villasana’s photographic series brings in new dimensions to vintage portraits as they are etched with colorful threads.
She adds vibrant colors to the otherwise black and white photographs of iconic figures like Madonna, Queen Elizabeth, Frida Kahlo, Prince and many more, thus evoking a sense of fun and whimsy. Most of these vintage portraits depict the subjects in rather sombre manner but the embroidered lines placed on eyelashes, on their clothes and as their fashion accessories steals the serious aura and introduces us to contemporary, three dimensional art.
Victoria Villasanana is an artist and an individual who is fascinated by cultures, societal norms and the human spirit; as stated in her website, she loves looking at how people relate to each other in a fragmented, post-digital world and this quirky series is perhaps her own personal tribute to strong believers of feminism. A theme well suited to appease her rebellious, feminist, street artist persona.
Checkout her creative compositions on Instagram and on her website.
