Another item from my mom who seems to be my source for all things odd right now is Jim Hodges, whose work she just saw while at the Philadelphia Museum of Art yesterday. As someone who has worked a lot with silk flowers to make me various hair accessories the idea of deconstructing them was probably quite satisfying.
That’s 20 x 20 feet approzimately of deconstructed silk flowers. Close up is below.
Hodges also make incredibly woven items in the form of spider web type pieces – the one below, “No-One Ever Leaves,” is silver chain and a leather jacket.
“From Above” seen below is just silver chain – another very cool medium for weaving potentially.
