Macro Monday – Close-ups of Beadwork

from the Storehouse in London to the Toronto Art Fair

These close-ups come from this 12th century German made banner. The banner itself is not large, roughly 3 inches by 8 inches.

The following beadwork was on the back of a denim jacket that was on display at the Toronto Art Fair.

The David Bowie Centre

Earlier this year the David Bowie estate donated their collection of photos, videos, clothing and memorabilia that belonged to the iconic singer to the V&A. The Storehouse set aside a room to house and exhibit the collection for all David Bowie fans to enjoy.

There are dozens of costume bags that store David’s outfits that he wore in his shows and music videos. You can even request to see some his outfits in the Study Hall. While we were there an outfit was being laid out on the table next to ours.
