A Dreamer's Mantle

A Dreamer’s Mantel  is from a body of drawings which reference the Bayeux Tapestry. This embroidered artefact is largely authorless, and Michie is attracted to this disembodied state. She is also drawn by repetition, and perhaps too where it becomes obsession. Her ink and graphite drawings are locked in place by a repetitive mark-making process. The process is slow and painstaking and also in some way discreet.
