Acu(pun)cture.Who needles it?

 Acupuncture: Who needles it? Another pun on alternative medicine.Yes I like puns.
 My friend Rohit is very good at them. He made this one.

Exercising the idea with flexible symbolism.Common aspects of the art of acupuncture and sewing would include needles,lines and obviously making holes in things. Producing the outcome based on the similarities between sewing and acupuncture while maintaining a interest in popular culture. he flow of “qi” through the veins is represented with the thread sewn through the channels of the skull.The shift in colors represents the negative and positive currents. Final product is sketched on fabric in a tongue in cheek manner.A taste of cheap humor woven into the slightly ironic idea of no one really knowing many legit practitioners of the art or subjective success.
