jacobsen spent 2,000 hours cross-stitching the eight images of the campaign, with the assistance of students at the royal school of needlework at hampton court. the pieces use coats plc anchor thread. jacobsen’s works for the campaign both fully and partially stitched pictures, effecting an interesting interplay between the photograph and overlain thread. the series will be on exhibition at georg jensen stores during the upcoming fashion weeks in copenhagen, new york, and london, before continuing to travel to flagship locations worldwide.
