Jan 6, 2010 Cactus

Three of my favorite artists are Maya Lin, Isamu Noguchi, and Ruth
Asawa. The forms they create really resonate with me; elegant,
contemplative, and somehow familiar. I would love to be able to
capture the essence of this cactus (seen at Volunteer Park
conservatory) in a sculpture. Ruth Asawa's tied wire and crocheted
wire sculptues capture similar forms, see http://www.ruthasawa.com/tiedwire_gallery.html
