In an attempt to subvert traditional embroidery culture, Lithuanian artist Severija Inčirauskaitė-Kriaunevičienė applies standard floral and decorative patterns found in embroidery magazines to metallic objects like plates, spoons, lamps and even car doors.

I love how she had chosen a rusted old bucket to stitch on to because it looks really interesting and artistic. The colors she had chosen for the flower go really well with the bucket. I like how she didn’t stitch through all the holes because the shape reminds me of a leaf.

I find this really bold and creative. Never before did I think anyone can actually use the embroidery stitch technique on an metal before let alone a car. I love the different shades of blue in the stitches to reflect the tone. The white stitching around the petals make the flower look so shiny almost like it’s being reflected off the light. I adore how none of it is outlined or even has black stitch that just shows the skill of what  Severija Inčirauskaitė-Kriaunevičienė can do with color.

I love the silver and rusted brown colors on the rusty old bucket, It just goes beautifully with the embroidery sunflower. I love how the flower contains so many colors and some colors you wouldn’t even think to involve.

At first I thought these two objects were two lamps but when I look closely I know realize they are both rusted old buckets connected to old pipes and taps. I do find these two objects very inventive.

This looks delicious as it looks beautifully stitched. I love the different tones of colors and the retail in the image of the lobster, I especially love the clause. I can’t help but notice the small holes in the plate made to stitch through. They look so symmetrical and neat and tidy. I like how you can see them even through the shadows.

I just find it so inventive and creative to stitch a delicious meal on actual cutlery.
