Kaylene Maalste – Book #6

Inspiration: The final quilt relating to Creativity is based on Surrealism. Artists sought to explore the realm of the unconscious and dreams through their work, creating bizarre, dreamlike images that defied logical interpretation. At its core, surrealism is characterized by three main themes: dreams, the unconscious, and the irrational.

Materials I used are 100% cotton and embroidery thread.
