Georgie Meadows

Drawing with a sewing machine on fabrics I make images inspired by years of working with the elderly and infirm.

I am very aware of the diminished role and value that old people hold in society today.

Through my work I hope to promote the positive and human face of the elderly, using visual clues to encourage communication and inclusion.

With my work, I create a final image from sketches, memory and photos and I replicate this using free machine stitch on old or dyed fabrics, which together with the use of wadding, I can create an aged, three-dimensional effect. I sometimes sew hair or paint the image. My aim is to portray emotions and celebrate the courage of old people who can find life a struggle.
