Huge Fiber Installation in St. Pete

My final post about all the great art we saw in St. Petersburg, FL. My photos won’t BEGIN to do this one justice!

St. Pete has an outdoor fiber installation by sculptor Janet Echelman. It’s called Bending Arc and it’s made up of huge shapes of knotted twine.

The photo above shows about half of it. It’s suspended well about the ground and lit with lights of changing colors. As the breeze catches it, the whole thing slowly shifts. It’s mesmerizing!

Alas, my video didn’t turn out, but you can see two on this page.

Then BE SURE TO GO TO ECHELMAN’S WEBSITE, to get your mind blown!

I just love discovering things like this! What great art have you seen lately?
