Helen Wilde creates ocean landscapes through on 3D embroidery hoops. She uses colors and shapes that resemble plant life from around the world. Her work ranges from large hoops to small hand-sized hoops. Wilde creates her embroidery hoops solo and uses online resources like Instagram and Etsy to promote and sell her work. Her recent line of hoops was inspired by the “Tropical Modernism of Sri Lanka”.
I find this project admirable because of its uniqueness and intricacy. However, because of the fine detail, each embroidery is quite pricey. Therefore meaning it is not affordable to all, even if it is desired. On that note, because it is so unique and intricate, I do believe Wilde created a product that is beautiful and probably desired by others.
