Metonymy

9 January '17 - 17 February '17

/mɪˈtɒnɪmi/​
A symbolism which gives more profound meanings to otherwise common ideas and objects. We use our hands to express ourselves in ways that words often cannot, which is open to interpretation by the receiver. The artist creates hand-sewn textile pieces to represent our everyday metonymic hand gestures.
