I am in pain today.
Image description (from the artist): A tapestry piece with a white bone-like structure at the top. On the bone it reads, “I AM IN PAIN TODAY” spelled with red beads and red felt. Hanging from the bone structure are red crocheted threads with beads attached to them. The red threads resemble nerves in the human body.
Image description 2: The top part of the artwork features a wavy, white banner made from fabric. The edges of the banner are decorated with a dark red stitch pattern. Inside the banner, the words "I AM IN PAIN TODAY" are written out in bold, red capital letters made of small beads. Five long, deep red strings of yarn hang down vertically from the bottom of the banner. These strings are tangled and knotted at different lengths, making them look like dripping. Small red beads are scattered along the hanging threads, catching the soft light in the room.
