Our Paths Have Crossed – What Can You See Collection – Christina Drennan

I poured absolute hours of dedication and love into this piece, building it stitch by stitch.

“Our Paths Have Crossed” is a massive 100cm x 100cm fine-art textile landscape that explores the complex, beautiful ways our lives, choices, and stories intersect. I was incredibly honored to have this specific piece showcased on exhibition at the prestigious Watergate Theatre in Kilkenny.

If you look closely, you will see a vibrant, dense web of layered threads. Every single strand has been hand-selected and repurposed, stitched onto a structured cotton calico backing. I love working this way because the textiles carry the beautiful, unseen histories of their past lives directly into this new, joyful form.

Honoring a strict sustainable ethos, the canvas frames I select are entirely repurposed. I seek out pre-loved, high-quality vintage structures, giving them a second life while mindfully supporting local community initiatives and their beautiful causes.

This is a true statement piece that shifts entirely depending on where you stand. From afar, it is a high energy explosion of electric pinks, deep blues, and structural lines. When you step close, it rewards you with thousands of tiny, intricate details and hidden textures.

It is completely unique, full of beautiful energy, and ready to bring life to your space.

Bespoke Hand-Wrapped Protection
To guarantee absolute safety during transit, this artwork is secured using a custom, multi-layered protective shell. I hand sculpt heavy duty, high density cardboard panels around the entire piece, creating a double reinforced structural shield that is perfectly tailored to its unique 100cm x 100cm scale. This bespoke wrapping provides maximum impact and puncture resistance, ensuring your masterpiece arrives in flawless gallery condition while honoring my commitment to sustainable, mindful practices.
