Darrel Morris

Résumé du livre

Darrel Morris' poignant miniature needleworks pack a punch. Using cast-off cloth upon which he appliques and embroiders, Morris addresses masculinity from a queer perspective and, by extension, comes to grip with matters such as shame and humiliation, melancholy and mourning, and the abuse of power as they are experienced every day. Despite the somber topics, however, Morris' elaborately and colorfully embroidered images of men and boys, rendered like characters in comic strips, result in powerful and humorous, if often forlorn, narratives.
