contemporary abstract textile art by Mary-Clare Buckle, UK textile artist
Kiss Kiss
Again using a Middle Eastern/Moorish-inspired 'tiled' design and on the relationship theme, Kiss Kiss uses a very fine, delicate version of the type of abstract fiber (textile) art design which I first used in Me and You. The kisses hanging in the air (air kisses?) are formed into an extra-large kiss, so the whole piece became a celebration of love, sex and relationships.
... but the 'tiles' are only just held together with fine gold thread - my comment both on the apparent tenuousness of relationships and the threads which link us together, whether as lovers or friends.
The title was originally suggested by the sexed-up Turkish pop song, which Holly Valance (where is she now?) covered for her debut No 1 single.
