A CAITHNESS artist is creating two unique garments which have been inspired by the coronavirus and a wartime tablecloth which became a poignant memento of servicemen in World War II.
Joanne B. Kaar, who is one of the Lyth Arts Centre artists in residence, is to hand stitch the names of carers from across the county onto a care-worker's uniform. A second garment will feature the names of anyone in Caithness community who has felt increasingly isolated throughout the pandemic. The items will feature in her new TEXTiles project.
