My Sugars

To me, the Cape sugarbird and protea (sugarbush) are rich symbols of home, where flora and fauna are intertwined.
Client

Wavescape

Location

Cape Town, SA

Date

2022

This piece was created to be placed in a surfboard for Wavescape. Many weeks, outfits, and stitches later, the piece was ready to be set in resin. I documented the embroidery and sent it off, but unfortunately, it never returned in the way I had envisioned. We gave it our all, but 2022 wasn’t the year for an embroidered surfboard.


I am incredibly grateful to the amazing team at WetInk, who transformed what could have been a disappointing loss into a stunning print. Captured with perfect detail, it looks just like the original piece!


This was crafted with DMC tapestry wool and stranded cotton.
