Stitched Semblance presents seven large scale embroidered portraits of women demanding the kind of attention we rarely afford a single face. Working in thread rather than paint or photography, Delaney renders her subjects through thousands of deliberate stitches, each one a small act of looking, of deciding what stays and what is left unsaid. Up close, the works dissolve into texture and color. Step back, and a woman emerges. The title holds a quiet tension. A semblance is a likeness, but also an appearance, a surface, something that resembles without being. To stitch is to mend, to construct, to close a wound. Together they ask what it means to truly render a person, and whether any portrait, however painstaking, however large, can do more than approximate the one who sat for it. Stitched Semblance is an exhibition about women seen, women made, and the gap that always remains between the two.
