Karin Birch has been using hand embroidery and hand stitched beadwork combined with acrylic paint as a medium for art making for twenty some years. The act of hand stitching thread and beads is a slow and repetitive process that affords the space for uninterrupted thought. The act of painting is spontaneous, in the moment, physical movement. She finds that combining these two opposite states gives form to endless exploration into the mystery of being.
