The pale lavender fabric in the artist's studio has a history.Embroidered with silver thread in a floral pattern, the material was once a dress, before Roma people in Sweden gave it to Malgorzata Mirga-Tas.In her hands, it had been cut up and combined with other fabrics and delicate paint strokes to create a portrait of a Roma community leader.
