“A revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, or doing embroidery; it cannot be so refined, so leisurely and gentle, so temperate, kind, courteous, restrained and magnanimous. A revolution is an insurrection, an act of violence by which one class overthrows another.”
This embroidered Little Red Art Book is inspired by Andy Warhol’s drag queen portraits and use of color & the Mao quote.
