In this episode of NeedleXChange I interview Severina Seidl.

Severina is a German embroidery artist whose work blurs the line between thread, paint, and narrative abstraction.

In this second half, Severina shares her ambitions in fashion embroidery, reflects on the push-pull between creativity and career, and gets candid about what it means to pursue art without a roadmap. Plus, we get her picks on books, music, and life growing up without TV.

For another artist making mixed media with a hint of darkness, my NeedleXChanges with Ruth Norbury (NX 27 & 28) are definitely worth a listen.
