float





I call my large paper ball "Float" - for the summer group exhibition at Kaleido called "Under lupp" which means "Under the microscope".

Initially inspired by pumice stones my children found a couple of summers ago. At that time I did several ink drawings, with many, many circles one beside the other. Now I used cut out paper circles and glued them side by side. The final form reminds me also of that of a hornet's nest or dandelions...

What do you see?

    thank you! I got the pilates ball out of the paper ball by emptying it of air :)

    It reminds me of fragile honeycomb.

    This is beautiful work. Children are such a breath of fresh air in inspiration! It reminds me of a round version of the deep sea worms'chitinus tube( http://www.marine-biotechnologie.de/marine/index.php/bacterial-symbiont-of-riftia-pachyptila.html), don't know why!

    yes, I see the nest too. Maybe I should change the name back - I actually named it "nest" when it was finished, but then I changed it...
