fabric, thread, embroidery floss, metal, beads, buttons, wood and wire
Charles LeDray's meticulously handcrafted work brings together an intimate assembly of humble, everyday materials — fabric, thread, embroidery floss, metal, beads, buttons, wood, and wire — transformed through the artist's painstaking labor into objects of quiet, contemplative power. Known for his obsessive attention to scale and craft, LeDray imbues these ordinary domestic materials with a profound sense of human presence and vulnerability. The work speaks to themes of time, labor, and the body, as the accumulation of modest materials becomes a meditation on memory and the handmade.
