A white textile panel fraying at the edges. The surface of the textile exhibits stitched black dots made by marking the impact of raindrops during a sun shower. The underside of the stitching is visible through the upper layer, creating abstract constellations.

Now my practice-led research is over for the year (photos to come) I've gained some time to carry out smaller experimentations. These two textile panels document a rain shower lasting from 4pm to 4:05pm. As each drop hit the calico I marked it with ink. These markings were subsequently stitched over as meditative practice. Abstract constellations form, tracking my progression from one drop to the next.
