     Never Mind the Bollocks was the Sex Pistols' debut album and their only studio album. This is the album that changed everything in the music industry and ushered in the punk rock movement. The raw sound, the look, and the attitude of the Sex Pistols is still talked about 40 years later with only one studio album. In a time before MTV or the internet, to make such a lasting impact is amazing. The art for the album was designed to look like an inexpensive stencil for a screen print and it was printed in a few color versions. For the album I wanted to create the albums cover entirely in yarn. I found bright day-glow colors of yarn and used circular and abstract stitching patterns to create the album cover.

The albums take up to 8 hours to embroider and can contain over 200,000 stitches. The series is created and designed to be hung together so you can add to your installation wall as you discover new pieces I create. Each of the albums comes with a signed certificate and is framed in acrylic and measures 12" x 12" x 2".
