Embroidery Artist: Inge Jacobson

She uses found commercial imagery and thread to reinvent classic advertising. She physically alters the pictures and appropriates their meaning with embroidery; Jacobson has named this process ‘hijacking’. She recently worked on a commission for American Express, who wanted an original perspective on 3 of their classic cards to use in a social media advertising campaign.
