Stitching the body: the precise anatomical embroidery of Amber Griffiths

UK-based embroidery artist Amber Griffiths, known as Ambroidering, has taken a unique and captivating approach to her craft. Rather than traditional floral motifs or landscapes, Griffiths delves into the intricate world of human anatomy. Her series of anatomical embroideries, rendered with precision using punch needle techniques, reveal the inner workings of our bodies in stunning detail. Inspired by nature and driven by a desire to explore beyond the conventional, Griffiths embarked on this journey to create something truly extraordinary.

Each piece in Griffiths’ evolving anatomical series is meticulously researched. Before starting, she immerses herself in the subject matter, studying at least 20 to 30 reference images of specific organs or systems. The result is a collection that beautifully captures the organic shapes, layers, and textures of our inner selves. Griffiths doesn’t stop there — she adds an extra layer of fascination by incorporating beads into her work.

Whether it’s mimicking a fused spine using real metal screws or embellishing her anatomical pieces with delicate beads, her art invites viewers to appreciate the complexity and beauty of the human body. Through her stitches, Griffiths pays homage to the intricate machinery that keeps us alive, turning anatomy into a mesmerizing form of art.
