Note sull'episodio
In this episode of NeedleXChange I interview Lesley Wheeler.
Lesley is a poet, quilter, and textile artist who brings tarot symbolism to life through fabric and thread.
In this first half of our conversation we explore how she approaches tarot as both a meditative tool and a form of visual storytelling, her PhD in confessional poetry, and the ways writing and textiles draw from the same creative well. Lesley shares how quilting became a sustaining practice during lockdown, the historical tarot decks that inspire her, and her ideas about liminality, accessibility, and making art that exists beyond traditional institutions.
