Lia Cook uses a digital loom to weave photographic images right into cloth, thereby solidifying a fleeting moment and giving it a new sort of permanence. Based on family snapshots and video stills, Cook’s work combines new technologies with old memories. The artist creates pixelated or pointillist impressions of expressions and portraits out of cotton or rayon. Visit Cook’s website to see her loom and more of these fantastic pieces in a medium rarely considered for realistic portraiture.
