'Loose Threads' written and illustrated by the incredible Isol Misenta, what a timely and incredible book this is. The combination of thread and collage is sublime, this is a book to cherish!
“Loose Threads is inspired by a shawl with traditional hand-embroidery that I was given on my visit to the Tamer Institute in Palestine… I thank the Palestinian women who embroidered it and the generous people who gave it to me to bring home to Argentina. Creation and generous travel far, and they inspire and bring together humankind."
”It weaves together gorgeous Palestinian Tatreez with a story of imagination and the idea of letting “the other side” slip through to the everyday, to how there’s a symbiosis between the wild, untidy, strange, and our usual striving for certainty and rules."
