Through hardships to the stars: Belarusian needlewoman creates cosmic embroidery

Space embroidery is created by a needlewoman from Belarus Yulia Krischik. The girl especially succeeds in imitating watercolors with threads.

Yulia Krischik calls her works incredible worlds. After all, they combine the cosmic and the earthly. Incredible galaxies, planets, asteroids and meteorites seem to hang in the vastness of tissue space. And the incredible beauty of the weave allows you to penetrate into these spaces.

Yulia Krischik uses a standard set of tools and materials in her work - threads of different colors and needles. Sometimes the needlewoman has to prepare the threads in advance. With the help of an ordinary comb, the girl adds hairiness to them, which in turn allows you to create three-dimensional images.

As a rule, the girl uses the effect of three-dimensionality when embroidering planets and galaxies. It turns out incredibly spectacular and attractive.

The process of creating an art object begins with an idea. Yulia Krischik draws the image in her head and then transfers it to paper. Then he copies it onto the fabric and proceeds to embroidery.

Sometimes, while working, the girl has to improvise - to replace the colors, shapes or sizes of individual space objects. This is permissible, because creativity presupposes such transformations.

For the master of embroidery, the importance of the availability of materials and tools is paramount. Before work, you need to stock up on everything you need. To select the toolkit, you can ask for help on the OXO website in the section "Accessories for sewing and needlework".
