Bedford, England-based textile artist Humayrah Bint Altaf beautifully ornates bird and insect embroideries with antique materials and metallic beads resulting in unique pieces of art.
I often wander through the woods near my home, where I gather leaves, twigs, feathers and other things I can find to bring back home and preserve. I also like to incorporate the treasures I find into my embroideries and with each piece I feel that a part of me has been embedded into my work.
