“String Theory” Thread Sculptures by Gabriel Dawe

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.

  1. se5 kul att du gillar inle4gget :-)Du har re4tt, keajdn pe5 omslaget till woonshoppen gf6r verkligen sitt till. Jag te4nkte inte se5 mycket pe5 att det var en kedja ff6rre4n du pe5pekade det, men jag tror den gjorde sitt till ff6r att jag tyckte om bilden. Med sin “ruffighet” balanserar den de lite gulliga dekorationerna.

  2. Wow, these are beautiful. They have such a visual impact. New artist to me so I thank you for sharing this post and for stopping by my blog and subscribing. Have a great weekend.

  3. 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.

  4. wow, who would have thought you could create a prism with yarn? I love these installations. The color is beautiful.
