I’m not sure how I found out about Carrie Ungerman the other day but I can’t stop looking at her works. In comparison to the world of Extreme Knitting she utilizes very modest, fluid, delicate lines to create large scale works. I particularly like her use of threads, while again in large quantities, they have completely different vibe.
4:50 am – made of thread and pins.
Close up – lots of threads!
I like that unlike some artists who work exclusively with fibers she doesn’t – she experiments with new materials like in this untitled piece which includes plastic bottles and mylar.
Treescapes done in letraset, which I’ve never used.
Matopos made of vinyl tape.
