The thread that pulls my art practice together is narrative. </p> <p>Although the strong subject matters appear to be memory and family, narrative is the visual description being the concept that viewers can depict in fragments. Autobiographical narrative is a recurrent theme in the work I produce, I feel that metaphor expresses the deeply nostalgic experiences the individual pieces revisit and present. A narrator is described as a collector of history, who creates a private museum of life experiences through objects transformed through inputting material culture. I use nostalgia as a sense of release, allowing it to become a manageable reality.</p>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43568340183http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43568340183Wed, 20 Feb 2013 10:36:14 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/7418b0ea00f8bcbef900f3276dbb29b9/tumblr_mihcsti8st1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43497990882http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43497990882Tue, 19 Feb 2013 13:31:00 -0500PicStitchArtAppliedArtContemporaryStitchEmbroideryFamilyMemoryHomeHouseNostalgiaLongingNostosWireMetalImageTransferSwanseaMetStudent<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/30d685a653480ef8db53ed8611838e4a/tumblr_mihcrn84Xb1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43497953889http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43497953889Tue, 19 Feb 2013 13:30:00 -0500WaxMouldSculptWhiteCottonImageTransferScreenPrintDyeSwanseaMetAppliedArtArtStudentGirlTextiles<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/db2c549f22ab9843ae8cebf76853d819/tumblr_mi9gbypMuj1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43143175442http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/43143175442Fri, 15 Feb 2013 07:07:10 -0500wax<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a6d48a983ba6642e334cd3c5cd87e896/tumblr_mi4gjzimKt1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42939208648http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42939208648Tue, 12 Feb 2013 14:23:59 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/7e293ce8d808b5dabf918d8efd424ae2/tumblr_mhvbqh5VAr1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524527268http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524527268Thu, 07 Feb 2013 16:01:00 -0500SketchBookHandEmbroiderySamplesDisplayExamplesInvestigationsTestsManipulationSurfaceTextureArtContemporaryAppliedArtAppliedArtSwanseaMetTextilesFamilyHomeLoveHouse<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f72dd1d67d80962f613ef8039e222a38/tumblr_mhvbqsT0Wa1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524542989http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524542989Thu, 07 Feb 2013 16:01:00 -0500HandEmbroideryEmbroideryTextilesWoolThreadImageTransferSewingFeminism<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/483889d7bf879909056535608001ebe9/tumblr_mhvbrcCy8v1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524571683http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/42524571683Thu, 07 Feb 2013 16:01:00 -0500WindowHouseWindowHouseMemoryPersonalFamilyOpeningViewingPointAccessVulnrability<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/682fb49f8ffe249cee2995fcb29a12e6/tumblr_mhed4xfX2s1r6oweno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/41792095352http://chanellediaz.tumblr.com/post/41792095352Tue, 29 Jan 2013 12:12:00 -0500WindowNailsMetalwoolHousewindowHousehomeAppliedArtSwanseaMetArtTextilesWaxMelting
