Collage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The unexpected use of materials, the combination of opposites, and the contrast between form and content are dominant attractions for the artist. The possibility of giving fabrics a third dimension through draping, free fluttering, sewing and embroidery appeals to her love of experimentation.<\/p>\n<p>Petra Schwab discovered the ancient embroidery technique of smocking, which is now only used in haute couture. This technique is characterised by a softly contoured, stretchy diamond pattern that reminds the artist of a vulva. When used on less luxurious materials such as old kitchen towels and dishcloths, her elaborate embroidery techniques take on an absurd quality: sensual motifs in a completely non-sensual context (and vice versa: banal motifs on sensual material).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4998\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4998\" style=\"width: 904px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4998\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zagreus.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Petra_Schwab_Collage2.webp\" alt=\"Petra Schwab.
