taped garlands





Tape is my good friend. I use elastic, slowdrying glue to fix garland pieces. Looks like first aid practice. Working on more colourful, not as melancholy garland.

I am quite taken by the work of Gyöngy Laky, "textile architecture" of natural materials. Solid and open at once. Tomorrow, Nov 15, her show opens in San Francisco, wish I was there to see and touch.

Here is more of her work.

Last week for my show in Örebro.
