Ginger Anyhow's Embroidered Text Messages

Between the expediency of our texts and our tweets, nuggets of sweet communication- and the memories they may hold- get lost within 15 seconds. Artist Ginger Anyhow rebels against the ephemeral state of our everyday communication with a decidedly old fashioned medium.
