Silk Art

Feeding on the Entrails of my Strung Out Mind

No, this is neither high speed photography nor ethereal jellyfish. This is a hand sewn sculpture of pigmented silk and threads done by Lisa Kellner. The gossamer fabric almost looks like ink diffusing in water, a gorgeous image to be captured by just silk and paint. Upon closer inspection, it also resembles organs or perhaps bulbous growths in the body. I feel almost melancholy looking at her work.

I am now resolved to take up art again as I have forgotten how much interest I have in it.
