I see Tiny Pricks as a creative protest.
Each time I find the perfect linen to go with the right Trump quote and add it to the other Tiny Pricks made by women all over the country, I feel like my voice becomes a little louder.
I could send an email to the White House, but I know it will fall on deaf ears. It’s so much more satisfying and empowering to create a small protest on an old hankie that will not only last longer and reach more people, but documents a moment in our history.
This is my fifth Tiny Pricks. I believe in the power of art and in the power of words.
When I see the pictures on Instagram of over 1000 Tiny Pricks hanging together, I think of what a single pinprick feels like, compared to how a thousand must feel.
“Thoughts are instantaneous” Rather than sending e-mails these Tiny Pricks seem like tiny VooDoo’s being sent instantaneously and oh, so satisfying. Just an innocent ladies sewing circle! Thanks for that. Linda
You said it Linda! I was thinking of a voodoo doll when I wrote this.
