Colliding Galaxies
This embroidery captures the cosmic dance of NGC 2207 and IC 2163—two spiral galaxies in the midst of a slow-motion collision 80 million light-years from Earth. Rendered in layered thread using the organic lacework technique, the piece reflects the delicate balance of chaos and creation found in galactic mergers. As stars are born and flung outward in tidal arcs, the embroidery mirrors the grandeur of gravitational forces shaping the universe.
This piece is created solely with embroidery thread. It’s mounted in a custom made shadow box with non-glare acrylic glazing. The size is 9.25 × 9.25 x 1.25 in (185 x 185 x 35 mm).
