It’s my birthday! And It’s raining!! That’s good luck where I come from… #IndieSpiritAwards #Oscars
It rained on my birthday and I thought it was terrible. Thanks for making me feel better about it, Lupita.
So now I'm going to sit here and grow my roots. That's my priority. One day I'll have branches and leaves as big as everyone else, but these will have something firm to grow upon. They won't be just for show and they won't be going anywhere.
I hope you guys do the same.

Melissa Zexter combines hand-stitched embroidery with photography. Using photographs she has taken herself, she sews onto them, irreversibly altering the image by adding a new layer.
"Using my own hand as a base material, I considered it a canvas upon which I stitched into the top layer of skin using thread to create the appearance of an incredibly work worn hand. By using the technique of embroidery, traditionally employed to represent femininity and applying it to the expression of it’s opposite, I hope to challenge the pre-conceived notion that ‘women’s work’ is light and easy. Aiming to represent the effects of hard work arising from employment in low paid ancillary jobs such as cleaning, caring, and catering, all traditionally considered to be ‘women’s work’"
