Which Artists/ Textile Artists Convey Addiction Through Their Work?

Published February 5, 2014

Question by Emily: Which artists/ textile artists convey addiction through their work?
I have chosen to focus my A level textiles personal investigation on ‘Addiction’. By addiction I mean things like drugs and alcohol but also mean food and gambling etc.
Are there any artists that show addiction in their work? I have looked online but have not had much luck.
Thank you 🙂
Frank H could you re-send me the links as they do not work 🙁 Thanks x
