Chiffon Thomas is an interdisciplinary artist, working across hand-embroidered mixed media painting, collage, drawing, and sculpture. Through twisted figures and fragmented compositions that seamlessly fluctuate between historical and contemporary styles and references, Thomas portrays a form of self-expression that places the human touch at the forefront of her art. Thomas’s work often engages with conflicting beliefs, values, and desires, primarily using tactile methods of hand embroidery, found material collage, and painting to perform as an expressive visual language that interprets personal feelings of nostalgia, longing for belonging, and assertions of self-identity.
