Elena CupceancuRomanian
Elena Cupceancu makes exquisite embroidery-type needlework, in a technique similar to macramé that uses a crocheted braid that is basted onto a pattern on cotton cloth, then stitched over from the back, forming a raised lace piece after the basting stitches are removed. She and her husband Liviu, a woodcarver and woodblock print artist, came to the U.S. during the Ceaucescu regime.
