In the form of crop circles, classical gardens, and rice terrace steps, the South West England-based artist crafts striking views from above guided by geometric shapes.I find symmetry very comforting and calming it scratches an itch in my brain, Richards shares. While previous works were driven by meandering lines and random organic shapes, the artist adjusted her process for her most recent pieces. I had to use exact measurements with a ruler to draw it out which is quite alien for me in my work!, she says.Following a radial approach, Richards experimented with starting from the center of circular or ovoid embroidery hoops and working her way outward, playing with different shapes and paths. Each aerial landscape is then stitched with meticulous detail, from single lines of thread mimicking bridges to a gold cog inserted at the heart of a teeming garden to resemble a fountain.Richards is looking forward to creating more winter pieces as the cold weather settles in and is also working on a larger project still under wraps. Keep an eye on the artists Instagram for updates, and see her website for more.Previous articleNext article
