Coming to Melbourne's Fed Square in October. I can't wait to see what he creates! Such wonderfully organic willow structures. The artwork is bound to look dramatic against the harsh lines of Fed Square. I wish I could make something so wondrous - unfortunately my weaving skills don't move beyond wonky wreath making. Wouldn't that make the best cubby house?
This commission is part of Fed Square's 10 year birthday extravaganza. http://www.fedsquare.com/events/stickwork/
sounds like a great party.
Hi Kirsty..these are incredible! They must take a while to put together..I love their curvy lines. I am having a 'giveaway' for a little girls pink tote that I made yesterday, on my blog today..if you're interested.
ReplyDeletethanks for the tip off Carol, consider me in.
DeleteGoodness their HUGE .....and 1 person made them......amazing !!(some people are just to clever)
ReplyDeleteI found a book on weaving bowls out of Australian native grasses and even that looks complicated.
The real success will be if I can coax it into producing an apple. Sounds like an interesting book, I think you need someone to show you how before it all makes sense.
Deletewow they are amazing
ReplyDeleteThose are so cool. As the page loaded I couldn't figure out at first what I was seeing until I noticed a person standing outside the first one, then I was amazed. To be so talented.
ReplyDeleteSo interesting and fun.
ReplyDeleteWow that looks amazing, they would make the coolest cubby house. That will be a great exhibition to go and visit.
