The Work of Phil Morrell

Laboured Tradition

About

Large pieces set to emulate kente cloth – each line finely painted on is a tribute to the painstaking process of traditional cloth. This looks to champion that process and the intense detail in every pattern.

One of my pieces for Hot Snakes Studio – Year of the Snake Exhibition.
