It's the concept of the cable junction boxes out on the street, created in woven embroidery floss and woven beads. Very glad it's done -- five moving parts even after all the bits were woven,and the finishing was gnarly to do. But it seems to be repaying the effort.
What I don't have yet is a title, yet again. Not big on titles, in fact Maggi Johnson, a great artist and one of my early teachers and great encouragers and insisters that I start to exhibit said, well, dear, you know what you mean, and I know what you mean, but a title might let other people know what you mean, too! so since then I've tried to name pieces. Sometimes I need a little help.
This is awesome. :) I am always amazed at how everything come together after the finish.
ReplyDeleteI sighed when I saw this creation, the sigh was for if only I could do things like this!!! It is lovely. I do not know why but waterfalls came to mind when I saw it.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! this was a long time making! the top woven part was on the wall for many months before I finally realized what should happen next. When I wove the top part I didn't know anything about beadweaving, and once I'd learned that it dawned that this was how to finish the piece!
ReplyDeleteI would love to comment on every one of your posts over the past weeks but I'm a bit pushed for time. Suffice to say they are all awesomely beautiful - flowers, butterflies, bracelets, goldwork, well you know what you've done. You never cease to amaze me with your creations.
ReplyDeleteNaming pieces would not be in my wheelhouse either. If I were naming this it would be simply 'cable junction' with maybe 'box' thrown in for good measure. Yep....very creative!
