Twist 2

Description

New Textile Art by Susan Hensel

Playin’ around in the studio again!

There are always “leftovers.”  And we all know leftovers are yummy!

I was working on tightly folded forms for another sculpture when I ran into problems.  The piercings were not lining-up properly.  But, I had all these pretty peacock colored things! So, I started playing, figuring out what they could do.  Oh boy!  Could they twist and dance!  I twisted the modules and slid them onto 2 red acrylic rods!  Yummy!

Sculpture: Fabric on Soft (Yarn, Cotton, Fabric).
