Inspired by a project led by artist Vanessa Marr, I embroidered a yellow duster with words from a poem by Marge Piercy, from a selection entitled 'My Mother's Body'.
The poem brought back strong memories of helping with household chores as a child and the act of hand stitching them onto a duster seemed a fitting act of memorial for my very house proud mother.
