Nothing thrills me more than when an artist can take a traditionally folk or craft medium and elevate it to the highest level of artisan ship. Angelo Filomeno is one of those artists. Ascetically the images are amazing, very unique and evocative. Coupling that with the medium he is working in, the work just takes on a completely new meaing. Most of his work is embroidery on silk, and it’s absolutely lovely! Seeing it in person is breathtaking.
