TRANSFER PAPER & EVELIN

Evelin first used these papers in art class as a child. She grew up in Soviet Estonia. Years later she found them in a drawer and now, after moving to London to study for an MA, she is using them again in her work. The transfer paper is used to create a template for her cross stitching. In her work she translates the coloured dots that make up the half-tone screens used in printing into stitches. Any variation in the degree of saturation of the cyan, magenta, yellow or black dots is reflected in the amount of thread she uses.
