The embroidery In the Subway is based on the author’s spontaneous drawings – records of moments when her body or mind found themselves in a certain state. Šťastná sees the process of embroidery as a return to this moment – stitch by stitch, she approaches it again, bringing it to life and nurturing it. This slow, meditative rhythm gives the resulting works depth and quiet intensity.
