Stitching Freedom: Embroidery and Incarceration with Isabella Rosner, Part 2

21 June 2024 - 31 mins
Podcast Series Dressed: The History of Fashion

Welcome to part 2 of our conversation with embroidery historian Isabella Rosner who joins us to discuss her recently published book/zine Stitching Freedom: Embroidery and Incarceration which explores the embroidery made in prisons and mental health hospitals through the surviving works of twelve individuals. Each of which stand as a testament to the triumphs and sorrows of the human spirit and a reminder of "what can be created when freedom is out of reach."
