“String Theory” Thread Sculptures by Gabriel Dawe

22 Sep

I never took to knitting.  One reason may be that it is accepted that you will have to rip out rows at some point in the process.  This alone drives me up a tree.     I never let perfection be the enemy of the good and knitting just doesn’t work that way.  I’d never have made it on the prairie.

Mexican artist Gabriel Dawe spins a yarn with these exciting sculptures.  Beautiful and precise.

    The photos don’t do it justice. I would love to see these works in person. I’m curious about how these are transported.

      The pieces are site specific, they are made in the space, normally Dawe makes them as a responce to the environment in which they are situated. In some of his pieces, once the arte is no longer needed it is gathered up and placed into a transparent box, thus creating a new piece of art also and making a statement saying they are constantly in a state of flux. Also in person the pieces are beyond amazing, truely wonderful.

      This is sculpture. I love the transparency of the color and how it blends into each other.
